Several years ago, when I take the Shanghai subway line 1, I found almost carriages are printed the information that it is manufactured by Siemens. But at that time, there was a message popping up in my mind. Why these carriages were manufactured by other countries’ company, not by our local companies.

Because I think the manufactured technology for carriage is not difficult. But some time later, but the carriage manufactured technology isn’t easy. Train carriage is not only a space to take passengers but also a fast and safety traffic way. So we must avoid any risk happen in the carriage. If it happened, it is easier to lead a horrible accident. After all, there are so many peoples who is taking this way to work.

Now I found some carriages are printed the local companies’ brand. It proves that Chinese subway technology has improved. It has already provide us reliable carriages.

Several years ago, when I took line 1 of the Shanghai subway, I found most carriages had a sign that said they were manufactured by Siemens.

But at that time, there was a message popping up in my mind. Why were these carriages manufactured by companies from other countries and not by our local companies?

Because I think the manufacturing technology for carriages is not difficult.

But some time later, I realized carriage manufacturing technology isn’t easy. Train carriages are not only a space to take passengers from A to B but they should also be a fast and safe means of transportation.

So we must avoid taking any risk in the carriage. If a problem happens, it can easily lead to a horrible accident. After all, there are so many people who go to work this way.

Now I found some carriages have a local company brand (printed on them)

It proves that Chinese subway technology has improved. It has already provided us with reliable carriages.
