China has been operating the world's fastest train, the Shanghai Maglev, at a speed of 430 km per hour or 267 miles per hour (mph) since January 1, 2004. This magnetic levitation train operates on a maglev track in Shanghai. China also operates the Harmony CRH380AA, with a speed of 236 mph, connecting Shanghai and Nanjing since October 2010.

Besides China, countries such as Italy, Spain, Japan, and Germany also operate high-speed trains. In addition to avoiding traffic congestion, this mode of transportation offers comfort and saves travel time. High-speed trains can cover hundreds of miles in a matter of hours. Beyond their primary function as public transportation, high-speed trains are also used for tourism.

High-speed rail is also planned for Indonesia. This mode of transportation will connect Jakarta and Bandung at a maximum speed of 250 km/h. This Indonesian-Chinese joint project was targeted to be operational in 2019. A Jakarta-Surabaya high-speed rail line is planned to follow.
