It was a humbling experience to stand on the platform in Nagoya during heavy rainfall and see the Shinkansen trains blast past. The world reverberates around these marvels of engineering.
macthewind Another sign of the amateur producer. Going ‘how can anyone not like my favorite music?' The sound of the trains IS the music, and they obscured it behind some other shit. Awesome trains though...
I heard the sounds just fine. It's about what you pay your attention to. Just admit you loved the tunes. lol I know I loved the one song playing around 6:40. 🤷🏾♂️
when it comes to the High Speed Trains you are showing of in your video, you are talking about the desinged Top Speed of the Train and NOT the actual Top Speed (VMax) of the High Speed Line where they drive on. Top 3 fastest operating Trains are: 1) 431KPH: Shanghain Maglev 2) 350KPH: Fuxing (Shanghai to Bejing) 3) 320KPH: TGV (France), Shinkansen (Japan) When it comes to World Records (only listing a few) 1) JR-Maglev (Japan) reached 603KPH (MAGLEV) 2) TGV-POS (France) reached 574.8KPH 3) TGV-Atlantique (France) reached 515KPH in 1989 3) CRH380BL (China) reached 487.3KPH 4) ICE (Germany) reached 406.9KPH in 1988 5) Frecciarossa (Italy) reached 393.8KPH

If you have a video of a pass-by by the TGV I'd like to see it. I would imagine if these folks had one they would have added it for sure. 🙂 "Top 5 FAST Train _Passbys_ - 600kph!"
The Italian Frecciarossa can hit 400 km/h, it is authorized for a maximum of 300 km/h but it cannot maintain this speed due to track conditions, so the trip of 600 km from Milan to Rome with 3 quick intermediate stops is done on an average of 165 km/h.
Santo Pino -- none of the video clips here show the Freccia rosa at 300 km/h because they are either entering or leaving a curve, a station, and in one case an S-curve.
@@kwgm8578 It's Freccia Rossa, Rossa means Red, Rosa means Pink. I've taken the FrecciaRossa 1000 quite often. The whole track is completely new, with new bridges and tunnels to make it as straight as possible, when on the train you often travel at 300km/h, the speed appears on the TV screen. Due to high maintenance costs with the increase of speed, the overall speed is tactically reduced on most sections of the track to maintain the scheduled time that gives the average today (commercial speed) of less that 200km/h.
240kmh is actually beaten by every single japanese bullet train in operation today. The slowest ones in operation rn peaks at 275. The fastest ones in operation peak 320
I’m from Sweden where we have the X2000. It travels at a speed of about 150 mph which is FAST! I rode it one time from Gothenburg to Stockholm. It was about a 3 hour ride and I LOVED IT!! The Swedes are quite good when it comes to their infrastructure among other things. I live in the United States.
Why did you use the miles per hour, when it was in Sweden and you're from that country? I would understand if you were born and raised in the United States or United Kingdom and you were travelling in a train there, that you used the miles per hour. But come on, that was in Sweden! We use kilometers per hour there!
Frecciarossa & Italo are lovely trains. Italy sure has some of the fastest (and most beautiful) trains in Europe. Loved taking them on our trips all over the Italian major cities. Napoli to Milano was when we experienced them at their best (fastest).
I've been on the 3rd train at least 6 times, the last time was Brescia to Venice, it didn't get to its top speed but it did manage 200kph, it was very comfortable in business and also in coach, it's a nice train.
Why is the TGV not in your list? Or did I miss something? 🤔The current world speed record for a commercial train on steel wheels is held by the French TGV at 574.8 km/h (357.2 mph), achieved on 3 April 2007 on the new LGV Est.
I wish we had trains that fast in the USA. Aviation industry would never let that happen, though. How cool would it be to go from Michigan and catch a cruise ship in the Gulf of Mexico in 6 or 8 hours?
This is in my top 5 coolest videos I have ever seen! But I think back to when I started to drive in the early '70s and I was coming out of Spokane WA. headed east pacing a BN freight waving at the engineer giving him the "race" sign. He laughed because he knew what was about to happen. I was about 1/2 mile ahead when I look in my mirror and saw black smoke pouring out of all 5 engines. They came to a straight stretch to Post Falls ID. and within a minute he was passing me like I was going backwards! I paced him then at 90. I can't imagine seeing these Asian trains at over 300! But then they aren't pulling a 100+ cars of stuff either. KL
What were you driving? Any American built 1/2 ton truck should have smoked the smoker unless you were on a curvy road! Im just messing with ya i get your story and its awesome. Here in America, and im a guilty drag racer, we are more about acceleration and "quickness" which a train does not qualify for. If you are over 40 then you all heard our own dads talk about speed/velocity/top end in their various you pick it model. I've tested this model with dads 1968 Olds Ninety Eight convertible. Dad is gone now (id give everything i have to see him one more time) but at this particular "test" it was top down 3am on M-14 west of Detroit. I flat punched that drop top for atleast 5 miles. Nobody on the road. Speedo was Way past 120 pointing straight down. That dont mean a whole lot for accuracy...however this car was dads first new car ever and he ordered it from Olds. Its got a 2.73 posi rear axle with the big torque of the 455. I bet the car went 128 easy, if not more. I was being picked up in the seat against the seat belt. But the wind pushed the car down i bet a solid 1.5 inches..drop tops carry their weight lower anyway by design. I put it in middle of the expressway and tried to keep the nose on the center line. Steering was so light but the input was perfect for this setup. Never once at max speed did the car feel "upset". In 1969 dad and mom were in Laredo Texas and i was about 3 weeks old. I stayed with family in thr mountains of eastern kentucky that time. When dad called and got the news they ended their vacation and headed back driving 1200 miles from Laredo to Letcher county Ky...in 16 hours. 12 hours would have averaged 100mph. Dad did it in 16 hours in that same convertible. That is Cooking! They only stopped for gas. Food was what they had onboard already. Mind you the trip back was with the top up. Dad loved to tell this story..he brought me home from the hospital when i was born in june of 1969. You could see our house from the hospital but nonetheless he did it. Got the poloroids to prove it. So many stories here. Dad insisted i take this car to my high school graduation, which i did. Then to college graduation which i did. Its still in same spot in same garage since 1973 and there are 67k miles on it. Dad towed a 24 foot Nomad travel trailer with the car. I remember going to yellowstone at about 2 and i remember the bears came up and put their paws on the door and scared mom so bad the instamatic camera got a good one of the door panel. But also before of the bears. Anyway all that said and so many more stories dad and me, both car guys agreed we will never sell the car. When i die i wont really care anymore but out of my 3 children looks like the oldest my daughter may get first pick. The world will see. By the way this car is bright red with white convertible top and pearl white interior and is all original and still ready for a parade. Nostalgia city because this is a train vid. I got on this tangent about top speed. Go back and read the beginning i guess. The USA will never have a 300 mph train because of the land of the free and each persons land. Plus i dont see the reason to spend that kind of money when people just fly. However with that said i LOVE these fast trains!!!
These fast trains haul 9-12 coaches with engines on either end. The Indian Shatabdi (1st clip) is an 18 coach (44 ton per coach) train hauled by a single 6350hp engine. I find that cooler.
Nope, if you could find a single train like that in India, you could win urself a lottery. Perhaps your knowledge comes from videos from Pakistan and Bangladesh. @@MarleneWalker-su8ku
@@devsharan4479 Please don't get the impression I was trying to be critical.I love the Indian attitude of coping with things and getting on with it in good spirits when things are overcrowded.Im sure a lot of trains now are not, but being a Londoner the world has a lot to learn from the Indian attitude to things .I say this having shared a house with seven Indians in Walthamstow, they were a great bunch of people and I have happy memories.

574KM/H test speed not operation speed(no travelling passengers inside, only engineers, concerned party, special formation, the voltage was boosted temporarily only for the test , the run wasn`t in operational and complete safe condition).TGV doesn't use distributed power system(only the both ends do traction) which limit their speed, operational charge. TGV is generally much short than Chinese, Japanese ones which are powered by distributed traction system.
You're right about the 574.8km/h record it was only a test run with specific engines and no travelling passengers. But you should read with more care what Cirbu Estub has written… Commercial speed of the TGVs is 320km/h (200 miles/h). It worths for the single decker TGVs and the Duplex (double deckers).
How many countries with a very large land area have a high speed rail system? Do you think if France was the size of the US they would have the TGV? I don't think so.
@@ut000bs well you see, China actually has a land area 2.2% bigger than USA and also has a much lower gross national income but still has a rail network with trains achieving up to 200+ miles an hour (fastest ever recorded was 268), compared to the fastest train ever recorded in the USA (Acela) only reaching up to 150 mph
@@kianhitchings9996 sorry. My point is the US is too large to have trains which few will use. Think how much money an LA-to-Philadelphia 300mph train would cost to build. That is why the US doesn't have maglev trains running all over. The US and France are two different things and China is building coal-fired power plants hand over fist to power its trains. Not to mention the fact that China has a different sort of government.
TopFives you should’ve used different clips for the Acela because the ones you chose are ones where the Acela can’t quite go as fast as it can in regular revenue service. Places like Kingston RI, Wickford Junction, Mansfield RI, etc. are where the Acela can go full speed, possibly faster than even 150 mph since they did 165mph in a speed test
While the whole of Europe have really fast trains. The Americans say they do also... ha... it is a French train (so European) and it doesn't go even that fast. Compared to Europe and Asia 🤣
What matters is not the maximum speed of which a train is capable on virtually straight track but the average speed it will achieve day to day. In the corridors where congestion makes a high speed train worthwhile, not just a “Concorde” “look what we can do” sort of technical achievement, the tracks were laid out over 100 years ago so in many stretches are not straight enough for ultra high speeds. To reduce curvature land has to be acquired, buildings cleared, which increases the cost enormously. Ultra high speeds require greatly increased maintenance. The Japanese “Bullet” Shinkansen trains are shut down for several hours every night for track maintenance.
Isn't it interesting that even at 255 mph it doesn't look like the stationary objects are going by THAT quickly. I'm always amazed when flying that the landscape below isn't whizzing by faster than the anticipated motion of 500+ mph would indicate.
The current world speed record for a commercial train on steel wheels is held by the French TGV at 574.8 km/h (357.2 mph), achieved on 3 April 2007 on the new LGV Est
The facts about the Chinese HST are wrong , the top speed in service mentioned is CR400BF which runs from Beijing to Shanghai/Guangzhou. It have a service speed of 350km/h and a top speed of 400km/h.It is made entirely in CRRC Changchun Railway Bus Co where I work.I must correct the following statement that CRH1-3 are completely produced in CRRC(branch in Changchun or Qingdao).
The japanese maglev is not in service for the public yet. It's still experimental. The fastest HS train available to the public since 2004 is the chinese Maglev, connecting the international Shanghai Airport city center. Top speed is 430km/h. The line operates in a HUGE deficit. The great challenge for HS rail lines is the competition with cheap airlines. In most cases it's cheaper to fly, than build rail.
Don't count rail out of the race yet; 1. While tracks are more expensive, the operating cost us far cheaper even for High speed rail 2. No waiting for 2 hours or endless security check or baggage or whatnot. 3. Airports are generally far from the city centre while rail goes through it; thus like 20-30 minutes of commute is saved. 4. You require huge amount of land and clearance for airport. For tracks you just need a narrow strip. 5. Many rails are funded or subsidised or directly owned by government, so less ticket price. It's actually seen that rail is competitive with air at the distance of around 500 KM or so. More than that air is better, less then rail. (I'm referring to High speed rail; bullet trains and maglevs)
You say it's cheaper to fly but high speed rail is mainly for domestic travel, Europe has HS rail connecting other countries but for most of the world it will be for domestic. So with that in mind if we are going for domestic flights then it's cheaper and faster to take HS rail as taking a train is extremely easy to get on and go where as with flying you have to commute to the airport which is most likely away from the city centre so the planes can land and not hit anything, go through security which is extremely slow, wait for your plane to be ready for you to board, wait while ATC tells your pilot that it can taxi and then procced to sit at the runway for 5 minutes waiting before you then take off and begin flying to your destination. Now for a train all you have to do it commute to the station which is most likely in the city and it is most likely has good connection to public transit, go through security and then get straight on the train or wait 10 minutes because you arrived early then you can sit and relax while coasting along. The price is also different you say it's cheaper for flying but in actuality HS rail is cheaper in the majority of cases for domestic flight along with the fact that with a plane that cheapest option is economy and if you want to travel with some comfort away from the noise so you can do some work while traveling or so you can just relax and enjoy your trip you will most likely be spending more to travel by business. Trains from what I have experience, are always quieter even with the cheapest ticket meaning that I can spend the same amount for business on a plane and get a better experience for the same with more leg room, a quieter car, constant connection to the internet, power outlets and amazing views and if I want to have a better experience I can just get a better ticket which would give me more benefits for slightly more than business on a plane.
Not experimental, not anymore. The chūō shinkansen line has been approved for construction in 2011 and construction started in 2015. It is scheduled to reach Nagoya in 2027 and Ōsaka in 2037.
@@warhammer8403 The limited express train in China speed up and lay many tracks. Why are they treated proudly like the originals they made, even though they are based on the technical provision of Japan and Germany?
Top Fives! You're at it again! Top 5 FAST Train Passbys" First of all, "Passby" in it self is incorrect, but let's leave that for another page. The 600 Kph, however deserves a comment. What is Kph??? Let's dissect this incorrect abbreviation. K = 1000, p = a lot of things, but I think the author intended it to mean "per" something. h = supposed to mean Hour. So, let's put them together. 1000perhour! 1000 WHAT per hour??? It clearly lacks something. That would be METER! The correct headline should read: Top 5 Fast Train "Passbys" - 600Km/h This happens when people copy others without questioning what they write. Hope at least someone learned something new.
Crazy to think how fast these large machines are moving. Fastest I went in my M6 BMW was 177mph and that was wild. Only imagine something so large going 300mph+ 😮😮😮

As a Canadian, I’ll never understand why we don’t use high-speed rail for transportation. I don’t know about you but I absolutely hate going to the airport, especially the one here in Toronto which is insanely slow and crowded, with flights often been cancelled or delayed. Aside from the Rocky Mountains Canada has the perfect terrain for a high-speed rail train. If the government had half a brain, which they don’t of course, they could make billions in the long run by introducing high speed rail to our enormously large country. I would much rather take the train then fly any day of the week, and since these nutrients can travel just as fast as any airplane, wouldn’t it be so much nicer just to get on a train, and I have to go through all the hassle of flying? I know they were talking about a high-speed train between Toronto and Ottawa and Montreal, but that’s nothing, and only a small part of our country. We need a hi speed train To run from Halifax all the way to Vancouver, I believe that’s almost 5000 km apart, but most of Canada, especially the prairie provinces are flat as a pancake and are perfect for rain to build a high-speed rail network. Instead we’re stuck with bloody via rail, which totally sucks ass, is way overpriced and too slow, and of course run by the government. What we need or a private investor is willing to put the money upfront, because it would be an investment like no other, with a guaranteed return of hundreds of millions of dollars a year, and over time, just imagine how much fuel we could save if these trains were run by electricity instead of diesel. Every single training in Canada is diesel, with the exception of local transportation is like subways or streetcars. Imagine having renewable green energy powering the train they can get you to any Canadian destination faster than flying, but cheaper than flying? It’s a no-brainer, unfortunately, so is every politician we have. It pisses me off that we don’t take a vantage of high-speed rail, when most other countries in the world rely on it more than flying, we’re all stuck so we have to pay more money to travel, it’s time that was Put to an end, ASAP!
HSR doesn't solve all the problems. Look at AirFrance and Airport of Paris poor quality of service. Now look at SNCF and TGV, which are almost systematically delayed or even cancelled...
Good complaining. So the country can make progress. Even if you only push her a centimeter. I hope the Canadian people will soon embrace their own real high-speed rail network.
High speed rail only works for "shorter" distances with high volume so say Toronto to Montreal not near coast to coast. Think LA to SF / San Diego not even SF to Chicago. Only China does it long distance and it bails out the losses
The distance traveled by a modern high-speed train is not defined in terms of 30 years ago, let alone the distance between Los Angeles and San Francisco. CAAC safely transported 1.11 billion passengers (domestic routes) in 2017. China's high-speed rail saw 1.44 billion passengers safely transported in 2016. The population of Africa and South America combined. By 2017, the total mileage was 25,000 kilometers, with 7 billion person-times in 10 years. To be honest, the United States has no say in the operation and technology of modern high-speed rail. Of course, you can also explain that the American people or government have no interest in high-speed rail. But do not belittle the work and achievements of other countries in this regard in the light of ignorance. Please bear with me if your English is not fluent. Welcome to China to experience the modernization you have never seen, after all, it is the year 2018. Sorry. My mean my English.
King: I agree that what HSR can achieve has changed but the fact still stands, you need high numbers of potential customers (NO problem in China), easy land purchase planning powers and long distance does not work for HSR (China is the exception). Nobody is going to take a train from New York to LA when a plane will be faster even with travel times to and from the airport and check in time. However there are plenty of big cities that are near each other in Canada/USA like Vancouver-Seattle-Portland or toronto-ottowa-montreal. But say Toronto to Quebec is faster by plane even if traffic is high. It helps if there are major intermediate cities along the route.
@@davidm7824 same experience in German ICE - world is flying by at 125 mph. Driving 155 mph on German Autobahn feels slower; I guess because in the train you look through the side windows. Can't imagine these faster trains...
I mean Maglev technology is already really "old". Emile Bachelet (french inventor) showed his result 1912 in Londen. Germany developed Maglev technology 1922 (on brake because world war 2). The first train (with people inside) had his premier in Germany 1979. Just a little fun fact: 401,3 km/h was the top speed of a german train 1975
Every decade or so, some nong in Australia starts arguing that we need one of these between Sydney and somewhere else, but there's no way I'd trust a bloke named Bluey or Davo to build the track properly.
I lost my time. "Top 5 fastest trains passbys" as title, and he shows Indian and american trains which are slow as fuck. No TGV,/Thalys/Eurostar, no ICE, no Renfe Talgo or 103, no KTX, no Shinkansen. WTF is that?
Wow you have to love it this fast trains. Our record in Holland is 160km/h. We are a very small country with very much trains on the same track that's why the speed is not higher.
One thing that must be noted is how well the system is built and maintained. European trains typically run a 98% availability but according to the China Daily news, the Chinese rail system has only reached 58% at best and the report even questioned those numbers as highly speculative..
@@warhammer8403 But the fastest (shinkansen) is capable of going at 603 kmph. Search it in the web for urself. And that's faster than any train in China could go right now.

I like how the upbeat tempo went up @ 1:37 mark. It went from a boring ole "Train Watching" video, to "Holy sh*t, am I watching clips from GTA5!" Well done!
The last clip was actually the Transrapid in China. Connecting the airport and downtown. i dont remember what city though. BUT i know it too is not a chinese train like the other ones wich are actually german ICE 3 trains. this is a maglev train developed by germany in the 1960-70s with a top speed of 500km/h...
The last clip is of a prototype in Japan, which may or may not get to production. The Shanghai Airport to City Train (It actually does not run all the way to the city) is the Maglev designed by the Germans.
OK, the last clip with a view out the window is in China and very likely the Maglev connecting Pudong Airport in Shanghai with Shanghai (Almost). The last view that we see of a train from the outside (the previous clip is of the PROTOTYPE Maglev/Shinkansen that is NOT in production.
Some Chinese people are going crazy with jealousy of Japan, but China and Japan's magnetic levitation technology is completely different. The Chinese maglev can only rise a few centimeters above the ground, while the Japanese maglev can rise several tens of centimeters above the ground and run at high speeds. So, from a Japanese technical point of view, the Chinese Maghreb is like a plaything. In addition, Japanese maglevs have a fairly high level of safety and reliability.
So you included the Indian train for an unknown reason, then for italy you put 3 different trains (of 2 different operators and with 3 different top speeds), you didn't put the TGV for France, and congrats, you made it to 10 mins with a ton of clips of the same train.
While I see the TGV is missing, I also wonder your criteria is whether commercial or experimental speed. If the former, Italian one will be 300kph (lower than French or Spanish), and of course, there must be Shanghai Maglev at 430kph. If the latter, many countries along with China achieved >400kph that not to be omitted.
Just so you know, the Chinese train on the Number two spot is a liscenced version of the German ICE-3 design. The german one faster, despite being almost 20 years older.
Top Five Fella, you forgot to mention that the Maglev train is only in the test and development stage and still is as of late 2019. As yet not used in Japan in a commercial way.
As a blind person who relies heavily on sound, I can say the Japanese one goes so fast, it makes a locomotive pulling cars behind it sound like one single car passing.
