Yahoo! News reports that China has unveiled a high-speed six-car train on Tuesday. The prototype train, which is manufactured by state-owned CSR Corp., is capable of traveling at speeds of up to 310 miles per hour.
Built from plastic reinforced with carbon fibre and magnesium alloy, the train was designed to be lightweight and inspired by an ancient Chinese sword for its looks.
The unveiling pushed through despite the high-speed rail accident that happened last July that claimed the lives of 40 people.
