Indeed the initial project would become a test bed for future rollout of an advanced rail network nationwide. I remember when the initial scheme was proposed, many wondered if it was feasible, would it be safe? Speeds up to 350km/hr were talked of! China then had passenger trains running between 120 and 180km/hr. The aim was for fastest journey times of 29 minutes reflecting Beijing 2008 being the 29th Olympics!
