5 Ministry of Railway of China CRH2 Part of Ministry s of Railway of China 6 th Speed up Project => Introduction of High Speed Trains from various suppliers. Part Step of by Ministry s step technology of Railway transfer CRH1, CRH2, CRH5 of China 6 th Kawasaki Speed 1) Importation up provided Project of CRH2 completed with the trains local => partner Introduction from Sifang. Japan of High (3 trains) Speed Trains (8 cars from x various 6 trains suppliers. = 48 cars) 2) Knock-down production (6 trains) CRH1, CRH2, CRH5 3) Fully domestic production in China (51 trains) Kawasaki provided CRH2 with the local partner Sifang. (8 cars x 6 trains = 48 cars) Step by step technology transfer 1) Importation of completed trains from Japan (3 trains) 2) Knock-down production (6 trains) 3) Fully domestic production in China (51 trains) 5

6 General Feature of CRH2 Train Operation route of CRH2 route of CRH2 Operated mainly on upgraded conventional lines. Operated mainly on upgraded Basic Model: Series Series E2-1 Shinkansen E2-1 (JR Shinkansen East) (JR East) Train conventional Formation: lines. 8 cars consist (two units can be coupled to make 16 cars consist.) => => Tc-M-M-T-T-M-M-Tc Max. Operating Speed: (4 motor => cars & 4 trailer cars) original design speed: 2km/h => Tc-M-M-T-T-M-M-Tc (test (4 speed: motor cars 25km/h) & 4 trailer cars) Train Formation: 8 cars consist (two units can be coupled to make 16 cars consist.) Max. Operating Speed: Original design speed: 2km/h (test speed: 25km/h) => Now operated at 25km/h on limited sections => Now operated at 25km/h on limited sections 6

7 Current Status of CRH2 CHR2 is operated with highest availability. CHR2 is operated with highest availability. As a result: CRH2 based Train increasing 1) Follow-on contract of additional CRH2: 32 cars consisted 16 cars/train As a result: CRH2 based train increasing 2) 3km/h class EMU: 48 cars (6 trains) 1) Follow-on contract of additional CRH2: 32 cars consisted 16 cars/train 2) 3km/h class EMU: 48 cars (6 trains) 7
