The Dhaka Times Desk Although it looks like a bus, it is actually a train. China invented this new train. It's driverless train!
This new train has no line and no driver. This is the first train in the world that will run on a virtual track! There will be no metal rails for this train!
The transportation system in the world's largest populous country has long been highly developed. The country has no end of research on how to make the journey even smoother. China, which surprised the world with the bullet train, has now brought this new train. A train that will never run on its own line. This train will run on the road. This train running on national highway will run on virtual track. That is why there is a special sensor on the road. Through which this train will proceed towards the destination. The trial run of this train was witnessed in the city of Zhuzhou in Hunan Province, China. Recently, the train of this virtual track runs experimentally. After the successful first test, China Railway Corporation plans to put the train on the road early next year.
The launch of this train was announced on June 2. A total of 307 passengers can be carried in this train. Sensors will be installed in this train. The discovered train will continue its route to China. No rail line will be needed. China has been working on this technology since 2013. It has been informed that it will be possible to run this train in 2018. This mega project cost 40 to 70 million yuan.
Officials of China's railway department claim that the train can be run for at least 25 years. However, the speed of this train is not like that of a bullet train. This train on the virtual track can run at a speed of 70 km per hour. This electric train can travel up to 25 kilometers after charging for just 10 minutes.
