China's first domestically-produced 350 kilometers per hour EMU train "Harmony" makes a trial run on April 23 on the Beijing-Tianjin inter-city passenger rail line and reaches a speed of 260 kilometers per hour. The first batch of three bullet trains rolled off the production line on April 11 at Tangshan Railway Vehicle Co., and is scheduled to start operating in August, ahead of the Olympics. By then, a train trip between the two cities will take only half an hour. [Xinhua] 1 2 3 1 2 3
