High Speed Rail Operates On Heavy Rail Tracks
Victor P Taffa
Capital City-Capital City High Speed Rail (HSR Aka Japan’s Bullet Train) is essentially a Heavy Rail Train that operates at 500 km/h.
Capital City-Capital City High Speed Rail includes a Roll-on Roll-off Rail Ferry across Bass Strait.
HSR travels on Heavy Rail Tracks that have been strengthened to take into account the wind, speed and velocity of a train that travels at 500 km/h.
HSR is also powered by overhead wiring.
