China, by far, has the largest existing HSR network, followed by Japan, France, Spain and Germany. China also has the most ambitious expansion plans, with the most kilometers of lines currently under construction and the most planned. Spain is also undergoing an HSR construction and planning boom, with France and Turkey also notably having ambitious HSR expansion plans.
If it is assumed that expansion proceeds as planned, in the next few decades, China will have the largest HSR network, with Spain and France in a distant second and third, both surpassing Japan in total system size. Overall, Japan has the most developed and integrated HSR system, being the first country to develop the technology and make it commercially available in 1964.

France has the fastest tested time for a non-maglev, steel-wheeled train, at 574 km/h. It is a matter of history that H Neuvon, who was a member of the Japanese delegation (1960) visiting France about the 25kV overhead traction system and played an important role in the first Shinkansen, was closely associated with the Indian Railways in introducing the Rajdhani Express trains. While IR is still stuck at the 1964 determined 130 kmph restriction, the Japanese have already migrated to double the speed already.
China, while being a newcomer to HSR, has very rapidly expanded its HSR system and has some of the most ambitious plans, by far, of any country for HSR expansion within the country and across the entire Asian continent. In contrast, the United States as a whole has only just recently, with the endorsement and backing of President Obama, begun an effort to develop HSR by allotting funds for the exploration, planning, and in some cases, building of regional HSR systems.
Having said this, part of the current efforts to develop HSR includes funding projects, such the one in California, connecting Sacramento to L.A., which have been in the planning phases for some time
REVIEW OF COUNTRY CONDITIONS WHER HSR IS IN OPEQARTION:
In order to describe the economic, political and other conditions in the countries with HSR systems, the
At this point Matt will have to tell a lie to keep his job. Matt should state when he got to his department Scott asked if he can stay after his shift ends to watch the videos due to he really needed him to help with the backlog. Matt can also state he really did not mind watching the videos after work hours because he really wanted to start work. Here are all things to consider when you are new employee, Scott asked him to sign the paperwork without watching the videos, which Matt did. On the hand, Matt should have asked Scott how HR tracks what you are doing during your 8 hour shift. Once Scott stated there is a production log that needs to be completed each day, at that point Matt should have said how are you going to log and watch 3 hour
The system will now share tracks with commuter trains in the Bay Area and Los Angeles. A far cry from the dedicated highspeed rail San Diego to Los Angeles to the Bay Area and Sacramento that voters approved in 2008. Construction on the initial 130-mile segment running from Merced to Bakersfield began in 2015 and is expected to end in 2019, after which Amtrak's San Joaquin is proposed to first use the High Speed Rail (HSR) tracks for faster conventional rail service until HSR trains use the line to its full potential. The last thing California needs right now is to add billions more in bond debt. Beside the fact there are other pressing infrastructure needs in the state (the Oroville Dam for example), Californians simply cannot afford it. There are other major reasons California shouldn’t move forward on this particular
While the internet and modern EHR technology has undeniably transformed healthcare in the past two decades, the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact will accelerate telemedicine adoption, providing even more opportunities to enhance chronic disease management and improve patient safety. Patients will have access to their specialists without the physical and financial burdens of travel across town, and to other states, when clinically appropriate.

The concept was initially proposed by the Governor Jerry Brown in the 1980s by planning and building a high-speed rail across California linking its north and south [1]. And a 130-mile bullet-train project connecting Los Angeles and San Diego was signed into law in 1982 by Governor Jerry Brown [11]. The idea of this Southern California high-speed rail corridor was planned to work with Japanese partners with an estimation of $3.1 billion capital cost, which would be privately financed and the trains operated without any public subsidies. However, the project got firm resistance from local governments, who feared that the proposed alignment would negatively affect the property values. Moreover, some environmentalists were against the project because of the noise, and then the project’s ridership projections and profitability was further questioned by others. Finally, consequent delays and financing difficulties led to the abandonment of the project in 1984
an economic system should, in theory, result in an exacerbation of related issues. Thus, it is critical to analyze the
One new technology that has affected people’s lives is the electric train .Electric trains have help us to get to our destination faster and more efficiently than any normal wasteful train.
High speed rail build the rejuvenation of urban areas by empowering high thickness, blended utilize land advancement around the stations. It additionally encourages financial advancement in second-level urban communities along train courses. It joins urban areas together into incorporated districts that can then capacity as a solitary more grounded economy. Fast rail expands
The increases in the costs of raw material and construction activities are threat to the financial stability of the project. It can be seen that a comprehensive financing plan is lacking from the state and the Authority. The proposed bonds would be insufficient for Phase 1 alone putting the rest of the project away from consideration. There is very little clarity on the potential matching funds to be available from federal and local governments. The reliability on private investors for capital funds is questionable approach. The California High Speed Rail Authority has received cautions from the state Senate Transportation and Housing Committee regarding the availability of matching funds for High Speed Rail
Japan was among the first Asian civilizations to embrace innovation with open arms. Though their respect for traditions did not waiver, they were (minus the ruling caste) open to change and advancements in technology. Asian cultures have, for the entirety of history, had more advancements in technology and have placed a higher value on education than almost any other culture around the world. It is no surprise that when the Japanese found out about the railroad system, that they would want to construct their own railways to enhance
France is attractive because it could be used as a strategic base to access the entire European Union because a manufacturer located in any EU country is considered a local supplier for all other EU countries.
With more and more people visiting Japan, and more and more people using the rail passes, more and more stations will be maintained and upgraded. This means that not only will tourists be able to use these great forms of transportation, the citizens of the communities will get better trains and better stations because of all the people coming. Because of the industry needing these upgrades and upkeep, the everyday transit user will get better facilities for them to use. Newer and better and more efficient transportation makes everyone happy. This impact on the communities is
