A trial section of the Jakarta-Bandung High-Speed Railway in Indonesia is now ready for the Electric Multiple Units (EMU) trains after its traction substation and other equipment were installed and commissioned on Saturday.
The 14-kilometer-long test track is located between the Tegalluar Station and Casting Yard No. 4. The EMU train trial run is scheduled to begin by mid-November.
The power system of the high-speed railway is designed with China's technological standards, and the key equipment were all manufactured in China.
