A new proposal is on the way which will cut journey time less than shorter. It will take approximately 34 minutes to reach from London-Paris.
China is planning to develop a train that can reach speeds of up to 373mph (600kmph) - and could get from London to Paris in just over half an hour.
CRRC Corp Ltd. are researching and developing something called magnetic levitation (maglev) trains, which would be faster than any other operation, according to a report on People’s Daily Online.
The firm, China’s largest rail transportation equipment maker, will also be making high-speed cross-border trains that can travel at 250mph (400kmph).
The new 373mph trains would be faster than any Maglev train currently in operation.
The bullet speed trains would mean that trains between Begin and Shanghai - two of China’s biggest cities - would take two hours.
Currently, travelling by train between the two cities can take nearly four hours.
And a trip from London to Paris would take only 34 minutes on these high-speed trains.
