Railway exhibition of 2025's advancements commences in Beijing
Modern Railways 2025 Exhibition Showcases Global Advancements in Railway Technology
The Modern Railways 2025 exhibition, currently ongoing in Beijing, China, is a testament to the rapid advancements in railway technology. Kicking off on Tuesday, July 8, 2025, the exhibition is showcasing innovations from various parts of the world.
At the heart of the exhibition is the CRRC's 600 km/h maglev train. This cutting-edge magnetic levitation train uses electrodynamic suspension on superconducting magnets, minimizing friction and ensuring stability at extreme speeds. The train accelerates on rubber wheels up to 150 km/h, then switches to magnetic levitation mode. Constructed with lightweight aluminum alloy and carbon fiber, the train is designed for aerodynamic efficiency to reduce air resistance. With the potential to drastically cut city-to-city travel times, such as reducing Beijing-Shanghai travel from 5.5 hours to 2.5 hours, this maglev train is a significant leap forward in railway technology.
Another highlight of the exhibition is HollySys Intelligent Rail solutions. Through their "AI+ Rail Transit Ecosystem" powered by their HiaRailAI Large Model, HollySys demonstrated the deep integration of AI, edge computing, cloud, and digital twin technologies with railway scenarios. They launched the Cloud Signalling Safety Platform and Digital Twin Platform and presented train control systems for both domestic and overseas markets. HollySys also highlighted advances in safety, standards, and intelligent rail development.
The Modern Railways 2025 exhibition is a global showcase of the latest in rail technology, highlighting China's leadership in high-speed rail innovation. By combining AI-driven intelligent systems with revolutionary maglev technology, China is enhancing speed, safety, and efficiency in rail transport.
Visitors to the exhibition are able to experience various aspects of modern railway systems, including simulated driving of a high-speed railway train. The exhibition is being covered by Xinhua News Agency, providing a comprehensive overview of the event.
As the Modern Railways 2025 exhibition continues, it serves as a platform for countries to share their advancements in railway technology and collaborate on future innovations. The event is a significant step forward in the development of the global railway industry.
