TGVs or Trains à Grande Vitesse are the pride of SNCF (French Railways), running at up to 300 km/h (186 mph) on a high-speed network linking towns & cities across France. In fact, trains reach 320 km/h (199 mph) on the newer TGV-Est & TGV-Rhin-Rhone routes.The maximum speed currently possible in the UK is 186mph, achieved by Eurostar trains on the HS1 line between London and the Channel Tunnel. The HS1 line is used by Eurostar services and "Javelin" commuter services from Kent, although the latter have a max speed of 140mph.Present status. The maximum service speed on Australian railways is 160 km/h (99 mph). Some trains in Australia are capable of high-speed operation, but are limited by track conditions.
How fast do European trains go : How fast are high-speed trains in Europe High-speed trains in Europe can reach speeds of up to 198 mph (320 km/h). Some of the fastest trains in Europe travelling at these speeds include AVE, TGV and Frecciarossa 1000.
How fast is a bullet train
Most Shinkansen trains operate at speeds of about 500 kilometers per hour (200 to 275 miles per hour). As new technologies are developed and instituted, future trains may achieve even greater velocities. Did you know
How fast is HS1 : At its top speed of 300km/h (185mph), a high speed train needs 2 miles to stop. According to the Guardian newspaper for every tunnel built along HS1 'traditionally superstitious tunnellers' held a special ceremony.
Hayabusa
Hayabusa is the fastest train in Japan, reaching a maximum speed of 320 km/h (200 mph). There is a direct train connecting Tokyo to Shin-Aomori in just 189 minutes. Making a seat reservation before boarding the Hayabusa train is mandatory.
Speeding bullets: Japan's Shinkansen bullet trains introduced the world to modern high speed rail travel. Most Shinkansen currently operate at a maximum of 300 kph (186 mph), but some hit 320 kph (200 mph).
How fast has a train ever gone
357.2 mph
The world record for a conventional wheeled passenger train is held by a modified French TGV high-speed (with standard equipment) code named V150, set in 2007 when it reached 574.8 km/h (357.2 mph) on a 140 km (87 mi) section of track.DB ICE: 350km/h (Germany)
The flagship of high-speed rail in Germany, the trains are manufactured by Siemens and Bombardier. ICE 3 trainsets also operate on cross-border routes to France, Belgium, and the Netherlands.Due to the early adoption of high-speed rail and the important location of France (between the Iberian Peninsula, the British Isles and Central Europe), most other dedicated high-speed rail lines in Europe have been built to the same speed, voltage and signaling standards.
That means it can travel over 100km/h faster than the highest bullet train speed. As for the fastest speeds ever reached by a train, the honour of fastest train in the world goes to the L0 Series SCMaglev in Japan. On its test track this Japanese maglev train reached a top speed of 603 km/h or 375 mph.
Does HS1 exist : It cost £6.84 billion to build and opened on 14 November 2007. Trains run at speeds of up to 300 km/h (190 mph) on HS1. Intermediate stations are at Stratford International in London, Ebbsfleet International in northern Kent and Ashford International in southern Kent.
Who owns High Speed 1 : HICL and Equitix own 35% each in HS1 while NPS holds the remaining interest. Network Rail (High Speed) is responsible for maintaining and operating the railway infrastructure and three stations, namely Stratford International, St Pancras International, and Ebbsfleet International.
How fast do UK trains go
Passenger trains in the UK generally operate at speeds ranging from 125 mph (201 km/h) to 140 mph (225 km/h) on the high-speed intercity routes. However, there are some trains, such as the Eurostar, that can reach speeds of up to 186 mph (300 km/h) when traveling through the Channel Tunnel.
375 miles per hour
What is the Maglev train's top speed In April 2015, a manned superconducting Maglev train broke two previous land speed records for rail vehicles. The train was clocked at 603 kilometers per hour or 375 miles per hour.Bullet Train Speeds and Safety
Whereas Maglev trains travel at speeds of up to 400 or 600kph, bullet trains travel at a modest 320kph. Despite these insane speeds, bullet trains are remarkably safe. In fact, the Shinkansen has had no accidents since its creation in 1964. That's over 50 years accident-free.
How fast is the slowest train : The Glacier Express is the world's slowest train, taking more than eight hours to travel between Zermatt and St. Moritz in Switzerland at an average of 18mph. Along the way, it passes over nearly 300 bridges, travels through 91 tunnels and takes in endless stunning Alpine views.
