BULLET - Chinese CRH2A EMU (Train Simulator 2016)

The CRH2A EMU is the second of three Chinese Railways High-speed trains I'm trying out. Capable of 250km/h and equipped with manual cruise control and in-train audio announcements I take a passenger run from Suining to Chongqing on the Southwest China High Speed Rail Network whilst showing the the trains features.

[@reyesarsenal9]

Love the touch with the speakers about next stop etc. Exactly as it was when I was taking the train from Hong Kong airport into the city.

[@ThomasRen]

Have been taking CRH for years, finally get a cockpit view here on your channel lol

[@okellyfoxgin9046]

Incredible. I'm from Chongqing and before crh380 and shapingba station was stated to use, I often use Chongqing northern station for my trip.

[@sensibleb]

Should've ended this video with a high-speed derailment, because secretly that's what everyone wants to see.

[@Skullbrothers]

+Sensi Bleb too soon?!

[@TimzBeats]

+Sensi Bleb *Agrees in secrecy* haha

[@gosportjamie]

+Nemaides That must have been a huge disappointment for you...

[@berendbrowny]

+Sensi Bleb Sad but true

[@Bluerazor52]

+Sensi Bleb yah

[@hubertmucha362]

This train looks like something out of star wars 😯

[@sicklymoonlight]

Wow, Squirrel nailed the pronunciation of 合川 (He Chuan)

[@Raynebow]

First train I've seen with station announcements. Very nice.

[@NuclearFallout321]

I'm quite new to the Simulator game scene and I can't believe i've already spent several hours watching videos of you driving public transport.. these games are oddly satisfying. The closest thing to a simulator i've played before is a game called Viscera Cleanup Detail, it's basically a janitor simulator

[@matthewskidmore2397]

You're right about that bridge being similar to the one in Runcorn. There is a new bridge being built near to it to alleviate congestion at the moment.

[@loganjackson9413]

Great vid paul like always

[@royleenders5558]

I'm with you Squirrel, Bob Ros is amazing!

[@nikkob1252]

They should just build the train line next to The Great Wall of China and call it The Great Rail of China

[@WolfieRich1]

+Joe Swanson Or for cargo trains The Great Haul of China

[@scottrichardhill]

nah, just stick it on top and put a sign warning tourists of 250 kmph death machines

[@KrisRogos]

I think the reason for the elevated tracks is that they can mass fabricate sections of the track and move them into place with help of special machinery. It must work out to be faster and/or cheaper than adjusting the track to terrain (plus trains can go faster on flat and straight sections)

[@MattJames2211]

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome abroad the CRH train" XD

[@jimg492]

Hey Squirrel, great vid. Regarding your comment about the escallator. There is one like the one you pointed out at Ikea in Wednesbury. Only been on it once, was scary lol. GG

[@Coltsfan]

Watching you drive this train and listening to your banter about Bob Ross is just as relaxing as watching Bob Ross paint.

[@rosslai2115]

CRH 1A is for medium range, and CRH 2 is a version of the slowest high-speed train. And CRH 1A is actually a high-speed train it is just a train to run in through two cities.

[@drumnotatsujin81]

Ross Lai Hm? CRH1A runs long range as well like D2244 from Chengdu to Fuzhou.

[@mct6902]

I am from China, and I take this train every other year, this is so real

[@matthewhanna9115]

PLEASE help the United States build these!

[@ati4280]

Quite real! I've taken this type for several times.

[@morbvsclz]

Pretty sure you were supposed to "park" the train in a siding or something... (Chongqing North 17) It actually displayed it as the next Objective down in the F3 HUD. Only because the F1 Taskviewer doesn't show anymore tasks to do, that does not mean there aren't any further tasks defined in the scenario, as the editor gives you the option to hide any task from the task viewer. The option is there so you don't have to clutter it too much with tons of "go via.... waypoints" etc. in more complex scenarios. In this case I don't really see why they would hide the last task, but it seems they did...

[@Vlaxie]

Ohh thanks for pointing that out, I had no idea why the scenario wouldn't end. Turns out if you press F1 and look around you can actually see the arrow pointing to Chongqing North 17, but it's not on the task list. You have to pull forward and then reverse into the upper track and it will guide you into 17 and the scenario will end.

[@maritnmetal]

lol thats actually exactly how the announcements sound like(including the weird automated "chongqing bei" sound)

[@weedaniel01]

it looks really nice

[@Nahid125]

I should be revising for Physics.... I'll pretend I'm watching this for "educational purposes".

[@dreampalace2596]

Laughs I am revising for chemistry the same way you are doing but in quarantine

[@turtleguy123r3]

Smooth

[@gamingwithnehemiah3730]

Squirrel I love your videos!

[@FidelC2k]

I love traveling in these. They're spacious, quiet (well, except for the people ^.^) and the seats get turned around at a terminus so you never sit the "wrong" way (unlike the ICE here in Germany).

[@trainboy5829]

How do they get turned around?

[@PringleLee]

That thing you said at the beginning of the video is very interesting, cause I was wondering why this train looks allot like the Shinkansen bullet train.

[@willlan7739]

I'm from China, i love bullet trains

[@wkip1]

thoroughly enjoy Paul's Chinese pronunciation :D

[@MCMinerHQ]

In California we have Cal train as a public transit, which uses old decommissions diesel electrics for the engines and sketchy 2 story high passenger cars, and they don't do any of that slowing down early stuff like in this video. its basically full throttle or full brake.

[@theroyalaustralian]

Pro tip for the D5120 that you drove in this job sim: reduce the throttle down to position 0 or 1 or whatever, then apply the brakes

[@ImmaVegetto]

Nice mod dude

[@prabirkumarmallick2536]

great video

[@ZiggyShadowDust08]

24:48 Funny you bring up the "hoping for a 2 instead of a 1" thing. Now railfans in the UK would hope to get on the new e320 Eurostar train but don't know which service its on.

[@ZhongHuaWuKezuDang]

This train is made in my hometown: Qingdao, China

[@szymongorczynski7621]

I'd have thought than the railways in china go on the right hand side.

[@szymongorczynski7621]

I'd have thought than the railways in china go on the right hand side.

[@ZhongHuaWuKezuDang]

Szymon Gorczynski In mainland China, Cars and other automobiles drive on right side of the road but the trains go on left side. Very strange.

[@szymongorczynski7621]

Xiaodong Sun I know, that's why I pointed it out.

[@szymongorczynski7621]

Han Frank Ah, right. I thought we just had influence over Hong-Kong.

[@AndreyAngulo]

lol the speed sign alert sounds as if you were beeping out a bad word. That's what I thought at first, it left me a bit confused for a few seconds.

[@xThexSpartanx]

When the train beeps I keep thinking you were swearing and it beeps it out. lol :)

[@zeppelinshy]

"It's fine, we only made a happy little mistake"

[@112Haribo]

You left the throttle on, that's why you were accelerating so quickly. Also, when you couldn't seem to get up to trackspeed you still had the brake on. It's all visible in the hud, man ;)

[@Josh-yz8gz]

keep up the great vids

[@simulationfanatic6189]

Great vid

[@davidli811]

I think our government bought the technologies of several foreign trains at the same time and therefore although they are named after CRH1 2 or 3 and so on, it's not like the ones with the larger number come with more advanced technologies and stuff.. But the ones with our own further development certainly are, such as the CRH380 series...

[@tomtoon2014]

Good video squirrel :)

[@stephencharlesworth5766]

I know where Runcorn bridge is Squirrel, I live in Widnes and your right, just a different colour and rest rusty :)

[@SC000TERonxbox]

there are no mistakes, just happy little accidents.

[@evanzhang2877]

Awesome part is that I could actually understand the Mandarin part and it's pretty much what they say on the real thing

[@techv1p3rzz59]

Keep up pal xx

[@megamihestia4049]

at the end on that sign, the green part just says exit, the black part is the name of the station, translate to Chongqing north.

[@hobyluk531]

Great to see chinese bullet train in a foreign game

[@TallulahSoie]

Announcer was pretty cool. Reminded me of Tokyo Rose for some reason. Not a big fan of the layout of the internal layout, though.

[@FOX11GUY]

45:45 That arch on the bridge is for Godzilla. Sure you new that.

[@papapiepatonie915]

Love this

[@samueltownsend3079]

They look like the extreme version of trolley escalators!

[@TrainsWow]

awesome

[@dylann699]

What's up,squirrel my man

[@HenryYang-2623]

in the last one, they asked you to move platform17, which is the other side of the station. lol

[@philliplarkis8860]

Good Job Squizzer, a good vid. but you knew that anyway :p

[@wesleyl1390]

Those are like the most common bullet train on the Chinese Highspeed Railsystem.

[@tomassiracing-team7635]

nice video dude I just sub and liked

[@anishranabhat3827]

wonderful

[@Sunnyyyyy90]

+Squirrel actually you just need to wait the system help you brake lol,is full automatically

[@Lokfuehrer2014]

This is a Japanese Shinkansen the JR E 2 buyed from the CHR the original Routes were the E2 operates is the Tōhoku Shinkansen, the Nagano Shinkansen and the Jōetsu Shinkansen

[@Josh-yz8gz]

best youtuber

[@sarukmaktao225]

Regarding the comment at around 28 minutes about what passengers would prefer, I do tend to say things like that about buses in my city. We have a few different models, and most of them are alright, but some days, I have stronger preferences, and may even plan my route according to what bus model is on a certain route.

[@Anastas1786]

I think while the train's in transit those screens just show views outside.

[@captainspongebob123]

So no-one else saw that he was breaking and putting max power down at the same? And wondering why it wasn't slowing down?

[@HenryYang-2623]

Yea, the Chinese CRH train's announcer is mostly the same as that, speak Putonghua

[@gamercatkinggameing]

What a strange ending to a squirrel video I wonder what the result was

[@user-np5si2ki3m]

it's pretty good to see this as a Chinese!!!

[@TheLucas3310]

Bob Ross is the king of painting :3

[@jbm9918]

Oh my gosh that acceleration

[@MattHoughton20]

Hot Pot is AMAZING!!!!!!!!

[@TheSpree8]

Bob Ross was my childhood hero. I wanted to be an artist because of him. Unfortunately I didn't have ability to paint like him. :)

[@Tomf1234567890]

I think the game is still loading the tunnel or something when you are in a long tunnel. At around 19:40 it looks like the game is still loading the shadow from the track

[@RD-ht6go]

Now CRH2 is mostly used on slow tracks and limited to 250kph for safety concern.

[@yinshengwang887]

There are two type of CRH2，CRH2A series(including CRH2B(long 16 cars version),CRH2E(sleeper train),CRH2E(special for cold weather)) are designed operate at 250kph(max speed 300kph). Another one is CRH2C series(including stage 1 and stage 2 with more power),they first can reach 350kph when operate(max drsign speed 380kph),later operate speed down to 310kph

[@jakebetts5555]

nice train

[@sparrow7644]

cool train

[@NicholasNormand]

If u look at the passenger cabin u have the train speed above the door going in the other passenger cabin

[@andreaswheeler]

a surprise ending too ;)

[@gothicmunkie2739]

OMG I was so devistated when I found out Bob ross pasted, his Lil pet squarel pee pod was adorable. I watched him on tv my whole life, started watching his show the joy of painting on pbs station when I was 6. Before him I watched his teacher William alaxander, both very talented artists.. euro Japanese, it would be easier just to say euronese lol!

[@bobwalsh4320]

the last station is Chongqingbei or Chongqing North

[@lyammosnier8135]

perfect

[@joshhill3691]

are you Steven Ross? it would make so much sense.

[@PrograError]

I guess you might already know this... Chong Qing sound a bit like "Chom-See" with the silent "G"

[@michagrill9432]

"Smocking" 😆😂😂

[@tylerfletcher7068]

You should make more videos of World of Subways 3

[@matthewl9375]

Went on it in July while on vacation. China's skies aren't that blue and clear ;)

[@chrischen1178]

+Matthew L That's the cost of the industrialization which all the developed industrial countries have been through in the past half century. So the sky will come back to the normal to be blue and clear in the next 10-20 years.

[@s55m21]

sadly it seemed that the beloved CRH2 have been remove from service on this route

[@connormurphy4034]

LVS - PHX? just flew this on Southwest airlines 737-800 series plane, only a 46 minute flight. I thought it would be cool and interesting to see? Thanks

[@KirksAudioSanctum]

We have a bridge as steep as that going over to Sheerness... 32:00

[@gamingwithnehemiah3730]

I hope to get a new computer so I can run Train Simulator 2016 or maybe 2017 if I don't get it that early.

[@horacelee8384]

25:59 "Bay " means North

[@kenshaw6985]

great vid wow that train looks beast love the announcer

[@CMH-aviation]

please mind the gap between the train and the platform

[@jossdeiboss]

You were roughly 1 minute late at the first station...luckily you weren't driving a real Chinese train or now you wouldn't be here telling us what happened XD

[@RealGengarTV]

+Squirrel Is there an Japanese highspeed train pack? I'd like to se you do an highspeed train from Tokyo to Osaka or Kyoto.. It's quite the long ride though so perhaps an 2 or 3 part series?

[@Sunnyyyyy90]

so far no any japanese route,this train's workshop did developing the japan high speed route,this 2a is base on their current progress on that,and they have release the "story forest rail",its a old japanese route,you can try.

[@RealGengarTV]

Thank you for the reply and tips Sunny yuan

[@buckygilvin3921]

Squirrel you are awesome can you do this may contain nuts episode 5

[@Croasail]

[@bobwalsh4320]

BOB ROSS! TRAINS!

[@sanderny]

Where did you find this scenery? It is not in the train simulator 2016 DLC download page, if you could please send me a link to find this scenery, thank you.

[@gemibear9670]
