China's bullet train revolution

China will officially start operation of the world’s fastest train service next month, knocking an hour off the 1,318km journey between Beijing and Shanghai.  Seven pairs of bullet trains – named Fuxing, which means rejuvenation – will start operating from September 21, Thepaper.cn, a government-controlled news website, reported on Sunday. National rejuvenation is a slogan promoted by Chinese President Xi Jinping.
