Abstract
With the official operation of the world’s first High-speed Rail (HSR) in Japan on October 1, 1964, HSR opened a new era of transportation development. “There is not a fastest vehicle, but only faster vehicle”, speed and capacity are eternal pursuit of mankind. No matter what kind of transportation (trains, cars, airplanes, ships, etc.), the requirements of human beings for it not only depend on speed but also on transport capacity.
