A high mountain cliff straddle monorail and railway system developed by Zhuzhou CRRC Special Equipment Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of CRRC, was delivered to the Dajueshan Scenic Area in Jiangxi Province. The entire project runs along the mountainside, with more than one-third of the section located on the cliffs, and trains carrying tourists pass between dangerous cliffs and peaks at an altitude of 850-1,150 meters.
According to Jin Junhui, chief engineer of Zhuzhou CRRC Special Equipment Technology, CRRC has developed its own articulated bogie and rack technology to cope with the rugged terrain of Dajueshan. It can handle the driving environment with a high gradient and small curvature, improving the train’s curve-passing performance while ensuring its climbing ability. In addition, all trains are equipped with an infrared collision prevention system as standard, ensuring the safety and reliability of operation.
Dajeshan Scenic Area is located in Zixi County, Fuzhou City, Jiangxi Province. The county has a forest coverage rate of 87.7%, making it an ecological model area in China, and its rich natural environment has led to a thriving local tourism industry.
