There is a lot of surprising things in China: these are ghost towns, glass bridges and “roads of death” over the abyss, high-speed trains and much, much more. For example, in the Middle Kingdom alone Eiffel towers (replicas of the Paris Eiffel Tower) several pieces, as well as many other copies of famous buildings, quarters of cities in Western Europe.
But China is famous for its amazing construction speed. For example, you can easily find and watch videos that show how these ants people (one gets the impression) they easily build a 14-storey building for 3 days, and the 57-story – in 19 days.
But it turns out that this is not the limit of builders China. The Chinese also quickly stack and rail the way. According to The Daily Mail, the other day 500 PRC road workers set up railway in just 3.5 hours 300 km long canvas (see video fragment of this well-coordinated work). If you think about it, then with such speed (approximately 85 km / h) decent highway. And then the rails are laid at the same pace – fiction, and more!
In this case, the 210 miles section on which such an amazing record for laying railway tracks will become part of the high-speed route that China plans to complete in next year. Thanks to this, the cities of Chongqing and Changsha will become “really closer” because getting from one to another will be possible on average in 4 hours instead of 11 current.
And although today’s achievement of railroad laying speed is simply striking the imagination, it should be noted that in the Celestial Empire a long time ago use such high-speed methods for the construction of any objects, including the number of rail. So, in January of this year in Fujian workers laid the railway and a new station in just 9 hours. And there are no such examples. Suffice it to say that in its time the world doubted that China could build a railway in mountainous, almost inaccessible region – Tibet. However these the unimaginable Chinese have not only overcome all difficulties, for example, permafrost laying, construction just fantastic bridges across numerous rivers and others barriers of this harsh land, but also made it all into some kind unthinkable short deadlines (see just breathtaking a documentary about this below) …
