Five fastest trains on the planet

SCNF TGV

The fastest train in the world is the SCNF TGV, which was developed and launched in France. It became the first commercial high-speed train in Europe. In 2007, the SCNF TGV set a world record by reaching an impressive speed of 574.8 km/h on a specially prepared track during tests. In everyday operations, the SCNF TGV runs at a more modest speed of about 320 km/h.

Shanghai Maglev

Another remarkable high-speed train is the Shanghai Maglev, developed in China. This train uses magnetic levitation technology, which allows it to literally hover above the tracks, minimizing friction and significantly increasing travel speed. In regular service, the Shanghai Maglev reaches speeds of up to 460 km/h, but during tests, it achieved an even more impressive speed of 501 km/h.

CR Hexie

Also from China, the CR Hexie express ranks among the top five fastest trains in the world. It was developed in 2007 as part of China’s national program to modernize its railway network and was the result of collaboration between Chinese and European engineers. In regular operation, the CR Hexie reaches speeds of 349 km/h, though tests have shown its maximum speed can hit 486 km/h.

JR Shinkansen

This high-speed train, developed in Japan, first entered service in the mid-1960s. Since then, it has undergone several upgrades, including significant improvements in speed. Currently, the JR Shinkansen can travel at up to 320 km/h under normal conditions, but during tests, it reached an even more impressive speed of about 443 km/h.

Five fastest trains on the planet

Korail KTX-Sancheon

The Korail KTX-Sancheon rounds out the top five. It began service in 2010 in South Korea, marking a major step forward in the development of the country’s high-speed rail network. In daily operations, the KTX-Sancheon travels at speeds of up to 305 km/h, but its true potential is much higher. During tests, this train accelerated to 421 km/h.
