Development

The CR300 series Fuxing Hao EMUs (250 km/h class) are the third class of Fuxing Hao EMUs, following the CR400 series (350 km/h class) and CR200J series (160 km/h class).

CR300BF-0002 with old livery

In early 2018, design reviews for the CR300 series Fuxing Hao EMUs began.[2] By the end of September 2018, the CR300BF-0002 prototype was manufactured and rolled off the production line. On October 17, the 0002 prototype was transferred without power to the Beijing National Railway Test Centre for testing. On December 8, unit 0002 was transferred to Chengdu railway station. On December 12, unit 0002 began test runs on the Chengdu–Guiyang High-Speed Railway section between Leshan railway station and Xingwen railway station, which was undergoing joint commissioning and testing.[3]

On December 17, 2019, the National Railway Administration approved CRRC Tangshan for mass production of the CR300BF type EMU.

In May 2020, China Railway officially ordered 60 CR300BF units from CRRC, with Changchun Railway Vehicles manufacturing 45 units and Tangshan manufacturing 15 units.[4]

On December 24, 2020, the CR300BF entered service for the first time. Train C3887, operated by a CR300BF unit, departed from Nanjing South railway station via the Shanghai–Nanjing Intercity Railway and Lianyungang–Zhenjiang High-Speed Railway to its destination, Ganyu railway station.[5]

Design

CR300BF-3008 stopped at Nanjing South railway station.

Exterior

The CR300BF Fuxing Hao EMU is manufactured by CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles and adopts an 8-car formation with 4 motor cars and 4 trailer cars. The first prototype of the CR300BF featured an exterior livery with a white base color and gold stripes, similar to the CR400BF EMU, but with a different (slightly ribbon-like) design, giving it a more dynamic and streamlined visual appearance.[6]

Power configuration

The CR300BF adopts an 8-car formation with a 4M4T (4 motor cars, 4 trailer cars) power configuration, consisting of two basic power units. Cars 02, 04, 05, and 07 are motor cars, while cars 01, 03, 06, and 08 are trailer cars.

Key equipment

Pantograph and power supply system

The CR300BF is equipped with pantographs on cars 3 and 6. One pantograph is used during normal operation, while two are used for multiple-unit operation.

Interior

The CR300BF EMU features first-class and second-class cars. The width of the two-person seats in second class is 991 mm, the three-person seats in second class is 1480 mm, and the first-class seats is 1190 mm. Between the two cushions of the three-person seats in second class, there are two power outlets, each integrating one three-pin, one two-pin, and one USB port. Additionally, the waste bins inside the train are divided into recyclable and non-recyclable waste according to waste sorting principles.[7] The entire train is equipped with high-sensitivity temperature sensors to control smart air conditioning, and each car has Wi-Fi antennas, providing wireless internet service.[8]
