Any bets on how many people get halved, before they work the timing issue out?

Funny, but the same thing was said about "Made in Japan" back in the 1950's and 1960's. I remembered back in 1964 when the Tokyo Shinkansen was placed in service. Design was highly unconventional at the time. Even the U.S. didn't have anything like it. But the Shinkansen proved to be reliable and safe over the years through continuous improvement and refinement.

Now "Made in Japan" is a highly respected and coveted item.

Give China another 20 years or so their quality will be up to what Japanese products are now.

The non-stop train with the external dorsal entry/exiting compartment is an interesting concept, showing outside-the-box thinking, I'll have to credit China.

Mr. S, thanks for the post....
