High Speed Trains

981002 High Speed Trains - Michael
Trains are important transportation. Trains have changed a lot since they were invented. The first train was invented in 1804. By that time trains could only go 8km per hour. But at now there are a lot of trains can go 300km per hour or even more. Japan was the first country which built the world’s first high speed railway. Many countries include Korea, England, USA and Taiwan also have high speed railway. The HSR is a kind of fast train. It has a lot of advantages, although it is very expensive to build, but can help a country’s economy. It can also transport things in a fast way. But the most important advantage is that HSR produce less pollution than an airplane. We can take the HSR to produce less air and protect the earth. I think that HSR is a very fast transportation. Maybe there will be Maglev in Taiwan in the future. Maglev is a kind of train that goes on magnetic system. China and Germany have Maglev now. Maybe I will have a chance to take a ride on the Maglev.
