South Korea's NEWEST High Speed Train - The 320km/h KTX Cheong-Ryong

[@Gerrito11]

Watching a train video on a train while filming a train video for a train channel! 👍

[@charlesbrenan6269]

Oh interesting! I went on the French design KTX to Busan in March. However, I've been on the 'own brand' KTX to Gangneung and I do remember the wireless mobile chargers. And 2:17 hours is very good end to end time - my journey was around 2:40. Great to see it all again! Amazingly, when visited Gyeongju in July 2022, those high rise blocks (16:30) didn't exist and the station was in open country. Many thanks for the vlog! 😊🇰🇷

Love the KTX. A simply stunning network of amazingly fast and very reasonably priced trains. What's not to love?

Wow... interesting to see how Korean railway is imporving.... very interesting to watch 🍒🍒🍒

[@네이버개돼지들저격]

spite of having 320km/h capability, that rolling stock still operates in 305km/h, since heavy traffic on hsr line.

[@rksreepansh]

305 is still great

[@mytube30005]

Trains don't always operate at the max speed throughout the trip. Sometimes they have to slow down due to the rails track having curves, or don't want to arrive early.

Great pronunciation of the Cheongryong, it's definitely not the easiest Korean word to pronounce. EUM, meanwhile, is pronounced Ee-eum, which means "connection." It was named that way because the trains connect various regions in Korea.

At least you manged to get to Busan without getting in the way of the dead around the place.

[@Bigger-than-Banana]

Korean citizens or long-term residents can use the Naeilro Railroad Pass up to 8 times a year. The price of the Naeilro Railroad Pass is about $75 and allows you to ride the KTX a total of 2 times, once a day for 7 days. In addition to using the KTX, you can use seats on regular trains excluding the subway up to 2 times a day. Standing seats on regular trains can be used an unlimited number of times during 7 days. Therefore, it is a good idea for Korean travelers who plan to use the railroad a lot to use the KR Pass (Korea Railroad Pass) and for long-term residents in Korea to use the Naeilro Railroad Pass. Lastly, because the Naeilro Rail Pass is a product that has nothing to do with social welfare, long-term residents or Korean citizens do not need any additional conditions to use the Naeilro Rail Pass. However, compared to the KR Pass, it may be difficult to obtain seats on KTX or regular trains that operate on weekends with the Naeilro Rail Pass, so you must obtain a Naeilro Rail Pass and reserve seats on trains that operate on the weekend in advance from Monday to Thursday.

The KTX were modelled on the French TGV , the original locomotives from France 🇫🇷 are still in operation.

[@lotlouischo]

Unfortunately, the KTX-Cheongryong can't travel up to speed of 320 km/hr because of the heavily congested Pyeongtaek-Osong area. Once this portion of the line is quadruple tracked in 2028, then you will experiment this train speeding up to 320 km/hr.

[@rafirazzaque554]

When you're booking on Korail, how do you know you're booking one of these as opposed to KTX-I or KTX-II?

[@Bigger-than-Banana]

KTX is slightly inferior in technology to France's Alstom, Germany's Siemens, or Japan's Shinkansen. However, KTX is competitive in train prices and parts prices. Additionally, Korea developed the KTX-Haemoo, which can operate commercially at 400 km/h, and successfully operated it in some sections. However, KTX-Haemoo was not commercialized because track improvement was necessary to operate on the entire Seoul-Busan section.

[@KK-uo4nu]

Does this train run on ballast tracks at the speed of 300 kmph? Please answer my question.

[@alexcho2099]

Yes

[@Fly2wingmaster]

Hello are you Korean ? I've never got to try this train I wonder if it's a bit better in first class and economy. KTX it's just marginal difference now and I hope they make it the fastest trane now since it is not that fast not exceeding that goal of Korea having going faster trains because of the rail improvements but I hope they do it fast so I'll read all of I we are my hitting our milestone of going at that speed

So many high speed train videos miss one of most important aspects. The top speed of a train is less important than the overall trip time. High speed trains spend little time travelling at their maximum service speed. Depending on the route, number of stops and availability of dedicated high speed lines.

[@hazelnut3794]

The design speed is about 350km/maximum operating speed of 310-320km, but as a result, the average KTX time from Seoul to Busan, which is about straight distance 400km away, is 2 hours and 30 to 40 mins, yup. Based on the Gyeongbu high-speed rail line, the condition of the high-speed line is sufficiently great in worldwide too, but because of geographic and many social variables with a lack of track capacity, actually, it is becoming an other ITX that can operate faster than ITX

[@DJAYPAZ]

@@hazelnut3794 Thanks for your reply. Many things affect both the peak and average speed of high speed trains running a passenger service. The number of stops for instance is sometime forgotten when citing a trains performance. You’ve pointed out a number of these already. Average speed achieved on a particular service is a good indicator of overall performance. There are quite marked differences in the acceleration profiles between train set that employ distributed drive and those that use a more traditional drive car.

[@김석한-x8j]

KTX 이음은 좀 더 산악지역이고 역사이 간격이 짧은 지역을 좀 더 느린 속도로 가는 열차로 최고 속도가 시속 250Km 정도이고 KTX청룡은 최고속도 320Km로 주로 경부선 호남선등을 달릴 열차입니다.

[@keyverest]

Eum is designed to run on very curvy rails(mountains etc)

[@seounghwankim2284]

EMU는 동력 분산식 열차입니다. 기존 KTX는 동력 집중식이라 기관차 역할을 하는 동력 전달 차량이 앞뒤로 있습니다. EMU는 동력 분산식이라 모든 객차가 스스로 구동할 수 있는 동력 장치를 갖습니다. 따라서 순간 가속력이 기존 KTX보다 높아 0에서 좀 더 빠르게 가속해 300km에 도달할 수 있습니다. 기존 KTX는 300km까지 도달하는데 316 초가 걸렸으나 청룡은 212초로 줄어듭니다. 뿐만 아니라 모든 객차가 스스로 움직이니 따로 객차를 끌어 줄 앞 뒤 전동차가 필요치 않아 승객 수송력이 앞섭니다. 또 동력 분산식은 각 객차가 동력을 각각 제어하기 때문에 제동력이 우수합니다. 이 동력 분산식 시험 열차로 최고 시속 420km 이상을 달성하기도 했습니다. 이 400km 짜리를 상용화 하지 않은 건 전용선로를 깔아야 해서 기술만 축적하고 그 기술을 EMU 열차에 이식한 겁니다. 해무 430x가 최고 속도 시험 열차입니다. 그 동력 분산 기술을 적용한 EMU 260 EMU 250이 있는데 이게 이음 열차입니다. 또 같은 기술을 적용한 EMU 320이 청룡 열차입니다. 이음과 청룡의 가장 큰 특징은 속도의 차이입니다. 즉 상용 속도가 250 km에 맞추어진 이음과 320km에 맞추어진 청룡의 투입 노선이 다릅니다. 이는 각각의 노선에 해당하는 지형과 선로의 컨디션에 맞는 운행 적합도에 따라 제작된 것으로 코레일의 운영 정책에 따른 특징으로 이해하면 되겠습니다.

[@Bigger-than-Banana]

The KTX eum can operate on both high-speed rail lines and general railway tracks, but is a train developed to operate on general railway lines. KTX eum can reach speeds of up to 260 km/h on general railway lines, but for this to happen, the general railway lines and railway signaling system must be slightly improved. KTX Cheongryong is a train that mainly runs on high-speed rail lines and can reach speeds of up to 320 km/h. Considering the cost of track improvement, it was not commercialized due to lack of economic feasibility, but there is also a KTX Haemoo that has been developed and can be operated commercially at 420 km/h. To add, in Korea, both regular railways and high-speed railway lines are standard gauge.

[@Fly2wingmaster]

The difference between just KTX and KTX 청룡 is mainly in the style and what type was made homemade and speed. Kate text from what I know is made from Russia and Katie's Chung Yung yung is well made from Korea and also has more of a style which you might think is a bit siker . Next week KTX changing and KTX have different speeds KTX real being a bit faster but now needs some modifications on the railing so now there is a margin difference. is also different seats are blue in KTX. SRT is purple and well as he signed the video it is Gray.

Train to Busan

[@AnonymousUSN]

*google translate As a citizen of Korea, I would like to thank you for using Korea’s high-speed rail service. However, I am writing a comment because I have something to tell you about regional classification. Gwangmyeong City, where 'Gwangmyeong Station' is located, is not included in Seoul in terms of administrative districts. Of course, you may misunderstand because the cities are connected. The word 'Hoseo' is a word used to distinguish traditional regions in Korea, including most of 'Chungcheong-do', but it is not the name of an administrative district, so when writing station guide subtitles, use the word 'Hoseo'. Rather, it should be used as ‘Chungcheongnam-do’ or ‘Chungcheongbuk-do’, which was used when introducing Osong Station. And when using 'metropolitan cities' such as Busan and Daegu in Korea, the word 'Yeongnam' is used before 'South Korea' because these metropolitan cities are not cities belonging to 'Do, Province' in Korea's administrative districts. It must be used alone. Of course, the word 'Yeongnam', like 'Hoseo', is not appropriate because it is a term used to distinguish traditional regions and does not refer to an administrative district. When introducing 'Gyeongju Station', the name 'North Gyeonsan' also appears. If 'North Gyeonsang' is correct and the most appropriate way to write it, it is best to write it as 'Gyeongsangbuk-do'. (Official from the administrative office) There is a separate city named 'Gyeonsan' next to Daegu. As a citizen who loves Korean railways, I feel sorry for running up to this video like a dog drooling and writing such a long comment. However, as a citizen of a country, I wanted the regional subtitles to be written accurately, so I hope there is no misunderstanding. I hope you have a nice trip to Korea.

@熵9310 日本新干线的运营时速200-320km/h，日本东北新干线最快也才320km/h。而中国日常运营时速350km/h，一天的运营里程是日本新干线五年才能跑出来的里程。日本的技术停滞不前，还在吃20年前的老本，已经越来越落后。每年的运营里程和客运人数都只有中国的万分之一，安全性比起来也低很多。台湾人吹嘘日本高铁，结果日本供给台湾的捷运列车最近几年屡次出现出轨事故。中国高铁已经十年未出事故。台湾人摸黑中国也不能改变事实。

[@jasperli]

All three major East Asian systems have their perks & drawbacks. Japan’s is extremely frequent & convenient along with incredible etiquette of their patrons & staff; however, they’re expensive. Korea’s is affordable & expansive but most of their trains are local & stop a lot. This makes most journeys between two major cities longer than if they connected directly but it also means that smaller cities get the benefit of HSR & being connected to the national high speed network. China’s is incredibly expansive, fast, & offers good point to point connections. However, I find their stations to be far too bloated, almost airport terminal esque, boarding procedure is very antiquated if not airline esque, station locations are far from historic city centres because of their size necessitating long transfer rides on local metros.

[@elysiumcore]

@@polestarli3091 That is a lie - there has a been a TON of accident with China High Speed...sure they accomplished a lot, No need to make up stories

[@Bigger-than-Banana]

The ticket price per distance for China's high-speed rail is about half that of Korea's high-speed rail. In China, land is owned by the state and labor costs are cheaper than in Korea, so construction costs were lower. Therefore, the ticket price of Japan's Shinkansen = 2 × KTX (Korea High-Speed ​​Rail) = 4 × CRH (Chinese High-Speed ​​Rail). However, considering per capita GDP, Korea's KTX has the cheapest ticket price relative to an individual's income.

Well, maybe it's the first station that passengers board, but it's not where the train departs? It takes a long time to get from the train depot to Seoul Station, so it runs to Seoul Station and starts service right away. In addition, it's the season in Korea right now with a lot of bugs. If you drive on the road for a while, the windows get stained. Maybe that's why. Anyway, I don't know for sure, but at least when I rode it two months ago, it was clean.
