DALIAN Vans Old Skool Canvas Wine Red White Sale , Aug. 13 (Xinhua) -- A new generation of Chinese middle-to-low-speed magnetically levitated (maglev) trains has completed a test run in Shanghai and is expected to enter the market in a year, CRRC Dalian announced Sunday.

Research and development of the new maglev train began eight years ago, and the successful pilot run showed China has mastered core technology in new-generation magnetic suspension systems, according to Qu Tianwei Women's Vans Old Skool Pink White Online , chief engineer with CRRC Dalian.

The maglev underwent a test run of 120 km per hour in Shanghai.

Compared with traditional rail transit system, the new middle-to-low speed trains produce little noise and have better climbing ability and a longer service life, Qu said.

Construction costs of new maglev train lines are higher than those of urban light rail but lower than those of metro lines. Their transport capacity is also in line with light rail.

China's first middle-to-low speed maglev rail line started operation in May 2016 in Changsha in central China's Hunan Province, making China one of the first countries to master such technology.

A study from the Chinese Academy of Engineering shows China will build more than five middle-to-low-speed maglev rail lines for commercial use by 2020. More than 10 cities are considering such projects.

SAO PAULO - A labor court slapped fines on the subway workers union Sunday for a strike that has closed many stations and clogged the avenues of Brazil's largest city just days before it hosts the World Cup opening match.

Angered by the ruling, union representatives said the strike would continue Monday Vans Old Skool Canvas White Sale , and its leader warned that the strikers would try to shut down the subway line serving the stadium hosting the tournament's first game Thursday.

Union officials also said other groups promised to join strikers early Monday for a big demonstration at a metro station.

"The government is declaring a war against its workers," said Alex Fernandes, the union's general secretary. "They sit down to talk to us or there won't be subway service during the World Cup."

Subway workers were angry that the eight-judge panel threatened even higher penalties if they didn't return to their jobs. The court fined the union $175,000 for the first four days of the strike and said it would add on $220 Online Vans Leather Old Skool Reissue DX White ,000 for each additional day the work stoppage continued.

Authorities have been able to provide limited subway service, but the strike has resulted in traffic chaos clogging key streets and has closed the main subway stations in Sao Paulo. If the walkout continued Thursday, it would be difficult if not impossible for many fans to get to Itaquerao stadium for the opening match featuring Brazil and Croatia. The stadium is about 12 miles (20 kilometers) east of the city center.

Sunday was the fourth day of the strike, and it closed more than 30 subway stops. World Cup visitors arriving in the city have run into more traffic jams than usual in a city already used to heavy congestion.

"There was no minimum care for the population Vans Perf Leather Old Skool Zip White Clearance , causing great disturbance, even in terms of public safety," said judge Rafael Pugliese, who was on the panel that imposed the fine.

The Regional Labor Court in Sao Paulo also agreed with management's offer of an 8.7 percent wage increase for subway workers.

The strikers are demanding an increase of more than 12 percent Online Vans Old Skool Leather Zip White , but the Sao Paulo state-owned company that runs the system says that isn't possible because fares haven't gone up the past two years.
