Fuxing, China's newest high-speed bullet trains will be officially launched between Beijing and Shanghai on Thursday, at a speed of 350 kilometers per hour.

The Fuxing bullet trains were unveiled on June 25 and are capable of a top speed of 400 km/h. The Fuxing has a monitoring system that slows the train in case of emergency or abnormal conditions. Telemetry allows a control center to monitor the train in real time.

The Fuxing, which means "rejuvenation," is a substantial upgrade on the Hexie, which means "harmony." The Fuxing is more spacious and energy-efficient, with a longer life expectancy and better reliability.

For a closer look at Fuxing bullet trains, CGTN will go live on its official channels of Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Weibo, and the CGTN APP Thursday morning, so stay tuned.
