BEIJING, July 11 (Xinhua) — The 12th World Congress on High-Speed Rail closed at the Beijing National Convention Center in China on Thursday afternoon.

Following the congress, China State Railway Corporation (CSRC) signed cooperation documents with national railway companies of France, Spain, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Belarus, Laos, Malaysia and other countries.

The two sides reached broad consensus on cross-border transportation, international exchanges and cooperation, which is expected to actively promote the connectivity of transportation across regions and inject new impetus into the high-quality construction of the Belt and Road.

The 12th World Congress on High-Speed Rail, themed “High-Speed Rail: Innovative Development for a Better Life,” opened on Tuesday. More than 2,000 participants from more than 60 countries, regions and international organizations attended the opening ceremony.

The congress, organized by China State Railway Corporation and the International Union of Railways (UIC), provided a platform to showcase global achievements in the high-speed rail sector and promote technology exchange and international industrial cooperation.

The congress included an exhibition of modern railway technologies and equipment, which featured 30 advanced examples of rolling stock, including a prototype of the latest model of Chinese CR450, which is the fastest high-speed train in the world with a test speed of up to 450 km/h and an operating speed of 400 km/h.
