Science fiction becomes reality: China's first suspended aerial rail train unveiled!

Recently, China's first aerial subway opened in Wuhan, marking a new stage in China's air rail industry. Unlike traditional subways and light rail trains, air rail trains are suspended on a monorail in midair and run directly above the ground. Upon hearing the news, American media initially dismissed it as Chinese bragging and deemed it impossible. However, when American journalists visited the site, they were astonished by what they saw. So, how did China create the sky subway? Let's take a closer look in this video.

China, with its vast land, abundant resources, and large population, has been facing increasing pressure on urban transportation due to population growth. Some cities, like Xi'an, the ancient capital of 13 dynasties, face unique challenges with subway construction due to the presence of densely packed ancient tombs underground. Digging up these tombs during subway construction requires expert excavation to avoid damaging the cultural relics. In response to this situation, Chinese engineers developed a suspended monorail train, making China the third country, after Germany and Japan, to master air rail technology.

The full name of this system is "suspended light air track," commonly known as Air Rail. The train hangs under a single track, lifting ground traffic to the sky. It operates as a three-dimensional transportation system with its own dedicated right-of-way, free from interference by ground vehicles and pedestrians. Moreover, it is a new environmentally friendly and low-carbon urban rail transit system. The train can reach a maximum speed of 60 kilometers per hour and can accommodate up to 220 passengers. It can also be flexibly organized with 2 to 6 carriages to meet different passenger flow demands.

When news of China's Air Rail construction was announced, the United States initially doubted China's ability to manufacture such a system, considering it mere boasting. However, upon witnessing the scene firsthand, the American reporter was left speechless and sincerely admired China's rapid development.

Someone has never heard of the Schwebebahn in Wuppertal, Germany. and has been operating for more than 120 years. It is not a new concept, but the CCP proclaims anything new to China as having never been done before which makes the PRC the bestest country in the whole world.

So whats new, this has been done many times before

This train failed after only a few weeks, leading to passengers smashing windows to get air. People were passing out from hypoxia! A typical piece of Chinese propaganda, showing off their "prowess\" in technology but not actually being capable of putting it together properly. Empty bragging as always.

Love the laughs. Some great propaganda.
