The CRH3 is a version of the Siemens Velaro high-speed train used in China on the Beijing-Tianjin Intercity Rail line, Wuhan-Guangzhou Passenger Dedicated Line, Zhengzhou-Xi'an Passenger Dedicated Line and the Shanghai–Nanjing High-Speed Railway. It is capable of service speed of 380 km/h (236 mph) as the very similar Velaro E used in Spain, but 300 mm (11.8 in) wider to take advantage of a more generous structure gauge and thus be able to fit in more seats in a 2+3 layout.

History

CRH3C

In November 2005 the Ministry of Railways ordered 60 Velaro trains for use on the Beijing-Tianjin high-speed rail line. Those trains are based on the German Deutsche Bahn's ICE 3 high-speed trains and have been given designations CRH3C. The first three trains were built in Germany by Siemens, and the rest are being built by Tangshan Railway Vehicle with some components from Germany.[5]

On July 27, 2006, the joint project office was opened at Tangshan.[6] Of the German trains, the first one was shipped from Bremerhaven on December 19, 2007.[7] The first Chinese-built CRH3 (CRH3-001C) was unveiled on April 11, 2008.[5]

The 8-car CRH3C trains are similar to the Velaro E design in Spain, but 300 mm (11.8 in) wider to fit more seats in a 2+3 layout; a 200 m (656 ft) CRH3 train will seat 548 passengers: 16 deluxe-class (8 sold publicly), 50 in first-class, 490 in second-class.[1]

Each train sets consists of four motor cars and four trailer cars, equipped with two driving units, and each of them is in charge of the driving of two motor cars and two trailer cars.

The bogies are improved versions of the SF500 bogie. Innovations include the body bolster, vibration damper, spring parameters, transmission ratio, widening the carbody and increasing the speed of the trainsets.[8]

The trains are designed for running at 350 km/h (217 mph). On June 24, 2008, CRH3-001C reached a top speed of 394.3 km/h (245.0 mph) during a test on the Beijing to Tianjin high speed line.[9]

On December 9, 2009, a pair of CRH3 EMUs (CRH3-013C + CRH3-017C) reached a top speed of 394.2 km/h (245 mph) during a test on the Zhengzhou to Xi'an high speed line,[10] setting a world record for double-link EMUs.

On September 28, 2009, an additional 20 CRH3C sets was ordered by the Chinese MOR.[11]

CRH380B/BL

In March 2009, a new contract was signed with China Northern Railways (CNR) to supply 100 16-car trainsets for 39.2B RMB with delivery from October 2010 onwards. This order for a total of 1600 railway cars is greater than the total production of all Velaro and ICE trains that have ever been manufactured in the past. It is planned that the trains will be produced by CNR subsidiaries, Tangshan Railway Vehicles and Changchun Railway Vehicles, using technology from the previous technology transfer agreement. In this contract, Siemens acts as a component supplier, with only 18% of the content actually made by the company.[12] An additional order for 40 16-car sets and 40 8-car sets was made on September 28, 2009 for 25.32B RMB.[13]

Top travel speed for this variant is 380 km/h (236 mph), though it is capable of attaining even higher speeds.[2] These trains have been designated as CRH380B (8-car set) and CRH380BL (16-car set) in September, 2010.[14] The first CRH380BL set with series number CRH380B-6401L rolled off the production line and was unveiled to the public in September 2010. it was manufactured by Tangshan Railway Vehicle.[15] On October, 2010, the 16-car train was sent to Beijing loop line for test. On November, 2010, the train was sent to Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway for trial run. The trainset reached the maximum speed of 457 km/h (284 mph) on December 5, 2010.[16] More recently, during a subsequent test on January 10, 2011, a CRH380BL set reached a new record speed of 487.3 km/h (302.8 mph), breaking the previous record held by the CRH380A.[17]

Since January 13, 2011, the CRH380BL enter regular service at the Shanghai–Hangzhou High-Speed Railway and Shanghai–Nanjing High-Speed Railway.[18]

All 54 CRH380BL trainsets have been recalled in mid-August 2011 due to operational problems on the new Beijing-Shanghai High Speed Railway. The new trains were reported as being "too sensitive" and the subject of frequent breakdowns in stormy weather. They will be temporarily be replaced by the CRH380A and CRH380AL.

CRH380CL

Changchun Railway Vehicle released a redesigned nose fitted onto a CRH380B body at the Modern Railways 2010 on December 6, 2010. The new design will be designated the CRH380CL, with the Bombardier Zefiro redesignated the CRH380D, and will incorporate electrical equipment from Hitachi. 25 16-car trainsets have been ordered by the MOR, replacing 25 previously ordered CRH380BL units.[19] The first trainset has been delivered and is undergoing testing.[20]

However, the three train sets had been repainted to CRH3C since December 2008. Later Chinese made trains include CRH3-005C, CRH3-006C and so on.
