China High-speed Train Slow Down

According to the train crash in Wenzhou, China decided to slow down the speed of the  hIgh speed train.

China's 2rd-biggest train maker recall 54 bullet trains for safety reasons, the latest blow to the country's scandal-plagued rail system.

Among the travelers were many who seemed to have resigned themselves to putting aside fresh doubts in the country's accident-prone rail system because of the train's convenience

Flights between China's two premier cities, while priced higher, have dismal records for on-time arrival. Tickets for the high-speed trains, which run several times during the day, can be purchased minutes before departure.

Among the 16 quiet and air-conditioned cars, most with as many full seats, people with doctorate degrees sat next to heavy machinery repairmen and sales service professionals returning from business trips, a far cry from China's less glamorous train rides in smoky, standing room-only cars.
