High-speed trains are gradually becoming the most popular means of transport because of their fast, compact and light nature, but not as complicated as on flights.
1. Shanghai Maglev, China

The Shanghai Maglev tram line with a total length of 31km starting from Pudong International Airport to the outskirts of Shanghai is the fastest commercial train line in the world with a record of 431 km/h. This is a type of electric train running on magnetic cushions, without wheels, so it operates very smoothly, without shaking and causing a lot of noise like traditional trains.
2. Fuxing Hao CR400AF/BF, China

Second place in the world also belongs to Fuxing, another Chinese ship. Unlike Shanghai Maglev, Fuxing is a high-speed train with wheels and runs on normal tracks. However, its maximum speed achieved can also be up to 400 km / h. This type of train is serving on the Beijing - Shanghai railway with a length of 1,318 km and it only takes passengers about 4 hours and 30 minutes to complete the trip.

The first bullet train Hikari was put into service in 1964 between Tokyo and Osaka, reducing travel time between the country's two largest cities from 7 hours to 4 hours. The Shinkansen, the H5 and E5 series, for the Tohoku and Hokkaido services respectively, are two of Japan's newest trains, and by far the most popular commercial service in the country.
4. Frecciarossa 1000, Italy

Another name is the ETR 1000, a high-speed train operated by railway operator Trenitalia. It is also the fastest electric train ever mass-produced in Europe.
The maximum speed of ETR 1000 is 350 km / h and 400 km / h when put into testing. With a completely Italian-made design, the design was inspired by the desire to create a vehicle that is simple yet elegant and still trendy.
5. AVE - Alta Velocidad Española, Spain
Spain has the longest high-speed train network in Europe, with 5,524.8 km. As of 2020, Spain has 10,000 km of high-speed rail.

Spain's fastest train belongs to the AVE series, manufactured by a number of firms such as Siemens, Alstom and Bombardier. Starting commercial operation in 2007, the class 103 AVE train built by Siemens achieved a record speed of 404 km/h during a test run from Madrid to Zaragoza. However, the actual operating speed averages about 310km/h to ensure passenger safety.

6. InterCity Express, Germany
Using Intercity-Express (ICE) is the fastest and most comfortable way to travel on DB Bahn's rail network at speeds up to 300km/h to excellent standards.

The first ICE train was run in 1991 and there are currently 5 different types of trains: ICE 1, 2, 3, T and Sprinter. Each type of train will run in the main cities in Germany and neighboring cities in Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Denmark and Switzerland. The transfer between ICE trains is relatively quick, it doesn't take long at the stations. All ICE trains are air-conditioned and relatively quiet.
