The World's Fastest Train - Read Text Before Watching....

�Here's the deal: You have to appreciate the speed from the shot taken from the bridge. You thought the train from Paris to Avion was fast at 300 km/h, but this is something else. I wonder how far back it has to begin slowing down for the station. Imagine going through a station at full speed! This is a high speed train built by the Alstom rail group in Belfort, France . They share manufacturing facilities with the GE Energy Products Europe (EPE) Gas Turbine group. The video was provided by the GE EPE Chief Engineer in Belfort . The train hit 574.8 Km/h which works out to 357.2 MPH or Mach 0.482 - wow! In particular, watch the train going under a bridge with people watching. This is FAST!! And it is powered by electricity, and controlled with Apple iMacs. Now, watch the attachment. � � � � � � � �
