Bullet train


Bullet train
Few years ago, China government has created a train, name Bullet train, in order to cross city between Beijing and Tianjin. The train speed is 350 per hours which decrease the traveling time of two cities. At first it took 75 minutes but now it took half an hour. Over 50000 people are customers for traveling between 2 cities. It becomes main economy of these places, and becomes culture of the cities. Zhange Zhimai is the one who designed and worked on the train with the Tianjin Research Institute of Construction. The train is very useful such as traveling for doing business or visiting cousins. Many foreign and Chinese passengers on the bullet train impressed in speed of the train, environment and service but some passenger scared the lightning speed of the transportation. Some group said that it is too expensive for traveling to destination.
Xu, he spent a lot of time to arrive on the train because of traffic jam. He took for about 40 minutes to arrive the train. After he got off the train, he has to take taxi to his company for about 40 minutes. He still spends 2 hours for traveling although he takes the train.
Many passengers notice the problems of the train so they want congresses for lower price. Because of high price ticket make uncertainly profits.
I think after the government gets money from investing for the train, they should lower the price. People paid taxes to the government so people have right to ask for lower price. The train is suitable for some group of people because some group is useless on using the train.
