A modern high-speed train manufactured in China has arrived in Andijan. The train is currently undergoing testing, the press service of the Andijan regional administration reported.
The train can reach speeds of up to 160 km/h and has a capacity of 415 passengers. It is expected to cover the distance between Tashkent and Andijan in three hours — twice as fast as the current travel time.
The regional administration said the launch of the new train is expected to improve transport links between Tashkent and Andijan and make travel between the regions faster and more convenient.
The Andijan regional administration did not specify the model of the Chinese train. Based on its appearance, it resembles the CR200J electric train.
On August 17, it was reported that a Chinese CR200J electric train had been launched on the Urgench-Khiva route. It can also reach speeds of up to 160 km/h and has a capacity of around 400 passengers.
The train features VIP, business and economy-class seating, free Wi-Fi, charging points for electronic devices, air conditioning and heating systems, as well as facilities for passengers with disabilities.
During his recent visit to the Khorezm region, Shavkat Mirziyoyev travelled from Urgench to Khiva on the new electric train.
