Japanese media's sharp take: China publicly showcases its super maintenance facility for high-speed rail, "showing off its muscles"
As reported by Japanese media TBS News on June 19: China’s high-speed railway network exceeds 50,000 kilometers in total length. Recently, a high-speed rail maintenance facility in Beijing opened its doors to the media, demonstrating its technological capabilities.
Japanese media stated: On the 18th, the facility disclosed by Chinese media is a high-speed rail repair plant operated by a state-owned railway company.
The complex spans approximately 120 hectares—equivalent to 25 Tokyo Dome stadiums—with slogans on site reading “Railways lead the way toward a strong transportation nation.”
Inside the factory, engineers responsible for high-speed rail inspections held a press conference, emphasizing: “We maintain precise inspections and meticulous repairs, actively driving innovation in technology.”
Chinese high-speed rail engineer: “We must firmly master core technologies for next-generation high-speed railways, preparing for the era of artificial intelligence, and continuously learning the latest advancements.”
The facility has already begun integrating robots and artificial intelligence into maintenance operations, expressing aspirations to further advance intelligentization in the future.
China’s high-speed rail network exceeds 50,000 kilometers—approximately 16 times the length of Japan’s Shinkansen.
In addition, China’s high-speed rail is actively promoting exports to countries like Indonesia. The public unveiling of this maintenance facility aims to “show off its muscles,” highlighting China’s technical prowess and safety standards in high-speed rail development.
