Fuxing Bullet Train will be used in Tibet this Year. Speed: 160km/h

At present, Lhasa-Linzhi Railway has completed the laying of the main rail line. This indicates that with the opening of the Lhalin Railway soon, the Fuxing EMU will appear on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau, covering all provinces in mainland China.

Fuxing Bullet Train

Different from other Fuxing EMUs, the Fuxing EMUs entering Tibet are called internal electric dual-source EMUs. So why is it called this name?

During the interview, the reporter learned that the so-called "dual source of internal electricity" means that the EMU adopts two power traction methods, internal combustion and electric power, which is related to the special geographical conditions of the Lhasa-Linzhi Railway. The Lalin Railway runs through the Yarlung Zangbo Suture Belt between the Gangdise and the Himalayas of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. More than 90% of the sections are located at high altitudes above 3000 meters.

After knowing the name, what does the Fuxing Bullet Train entering Tibet look like?

Relevant persons told reporters that the internal electric dual-source EMU was mainly upgraded on the basis of the 160km/h Fuxing EMU "Hulk", including the addition of oxygen supply equipment. However, the appearance and function of the final appearance will not be revealed until the opening of the Lalin Railway. In the future, clients will be able to take Nyingchi tour by bullet train from Lhasa to Linzhi.
