CHSR is technologically impressive, but planning and operations of boarding and stations are superior with DB that treats HSR like normal trains and not ground-level planes (an issue with many HSR systems).
- DiogenesKynikos 4y agoIn Germany, the fact that you can just walk onto the platform at any time and that your ticket is checked after boarding is very convenient. However, on-time performance in Germany is horrendous compared to China, so I'm not willing to call Germany's operations as a whole superior. If I had to choose between my train arriving within half an hour of the scheduled time and having to board airplane style, I would board airplane style.
