Historical background:
Since Britain built the first railway in the world in 1825, due to the advantages of transportation speed and energy, railways have become the backbone of transportation in various countries for a long historical period. Since 1950s, the rapid development of highway and air transportation has put the railway at a disadvantage in speed. Long-distance passenger transport is squeezed out by air transport, short-distance passenger transport is replaced by automobile transport, and the railway enters a passive situation of "sunset industry"
However, since 1970s, due to energy crisis, environmental deterioration, traffic safety and other issues, people have re-recognized the value of railways. In particular, high-speed railway has adapted to the new needs of modern social and economic development with a series of technical advantages such as high speed, large transportation capacity, low energy consumption and light pollution.
1964 10, the Tokyo-Osaka high-speed railway on the Tokaido Shinkansen in Japan runs at a speed of 2 10 km/h, and France has built the first high-speed railway at 198 1, which shows great vitality. Because of its obvious economic and social benefits, many countries and regions such as Europe, North America and Asia are building, rebuilding or planning to build high-speed railways.
