Recently, extreme weather such as blizzard and freezing rain has swept across the country, bringing great trouble to people's travel. Under such weather conditions, high-speed rail was paralyzed in a large area, and many trains were forced to slow down and suspend operation. However, in such a predicament, the green train stepped forward and became a solid backing to escort passengers home.
Why is it that in extreme weather such as heavy snowfall and freezing rain, high-speed trains are paralyzed, but green trains can operate normally? There are several factors involved.
The main reason why the green train can maintain stable operation in severe weather such as heavy snowfall is that its design concept, power** and operation mode are different from that of high-speed rail, which makes the green train more resilient in the face of extreme weather. Here are a few key factors:
Power**: Green trains are typically powered by an internal combustion engine**, rather than relying on electricity like high-speed trains. This means that the green trains are not affected by icing or power outages in the catenary and are able to run independently on their own fuel.
Infrastructure: Green trains typically run on lines with relatively simple infrastructure, which are less expensive to build and maintain, and are relatively easy to repair in severe weather such as blizzards, allowing them to get back up and running quickly.
Running speed: Green trains run at a slower speed, usually under 100 km/h. The lower speed allows the green train to control its speed and maintain stability when traveling on snow-covered tracks, reducing the danger of excessive speed.
Operating costs: The operating costs of green trains are relatively low, and in bad weather conditions, operators can flexibly adjust their operating plans according to the actual situation to cope with possible impacts.
Adaptability: The Green Train's ability to operate reliably in blizzards is due to its unique power**, infrastructure, speed, operating costs, and adaptability. Despite the growing popularity of high-speed rail technology, green trains still play an important role in certain scenarios due to their excellent ability to cope with severe weather.
The existence is reasonable, so the railway department can consider appropriately reducing the number of high-speed rail trains in winter and low-income groups, and increasing the number of ordinary trains such as express, fast and direct. This not only reduces operating costs, but also increases passenger capacity and better copes with the effects of rain and snow. Although the green train has a slight "taste", it carries the breath of fireworks in the world. This smell is the wanderer's longing for his hometown and the expectation of reuniting with his family. At this moment, let us pray for those wanderers who stick to the way home, and thank the people who stick to the railway posts, and wish them to reunite with their families as soon as possible and spend a happy and peaceful festival together.
