全球首列智轨列车中国株洲上路运行，外国网友：好酷！

A futuristic rail system featuring track-less trains and virtual lines was launched in a Chinese city yesterday.

昨天，具有未来感的虚拟轨道列车开始运行

Billed as the world's first 'smart train', the vehicle runs on virtual rail lines through the bustling streets of Zhuzhou in China's Hunan Province, reported People's Daily Online.

该列车被誉为全球首列智轨列车，在株洲上路运行。

The train could travel as quickly as 70kmh, or 43 mph, and carry as many as 300 passengers.

列车最快速度70公里每小时，能运载多达300名乘客。

The rail system, called ART or Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit, has been developed by China's CRRC Corporation Limited, one of the world's largest train manufacturers.

智轨列车是中国中车研发的，中车是世界最大的列车制造商之一。

It's set to speed up public transportation of Zhuzhou, a city with about four million residents, before being popularised to other parts of China.

智轨列车将加快400万人口的株洲的公共交通发展，然后再往中国其他地方推广。

The CRRC Corporation Limited began designing the new system in 2013.

中国中车于2013年开始设计该系统的。

The transit system uses rubber wheels on a plastic core and has new technology copyrighted by the rail corporation.

The track-less train is said to have a life-span of around 25 years.

据称智轨列车的寿命大约为25年。

After 10 minutes of charging, the train can travel 25 kilometres (15.5 miles).

充电10分钟后，能跑25公里。

The train, sporting sleek livery, is somewhat a hybrid between a long bus and a traditional tram. It could carry much more passengers than a bus and unlike a tram, it doesn't run on physical railway tracks.

The invisible railway measures 3.75 metres (12.3 feet) wide and is embodied by dotted lines painted on the road.

虚拟轨道宽3.75米，两边划有虚线。

According to Feng Jianghua, chief engineer of the train, the virtual railway system is much cheaper to build compared to a tram or subway system.

Mr Feng said it would cost 150 to 200 million yuan (£17 to 23 million) to build one kilometre (0.6 miles) of tramway in China, but with the high-tech virtual line, the cost would be reduced to 50 to 100 million yuan (£5.7 to 11.4 million) for the same distance.

列车的总工程师，称电车轨道一公里造价介于1.5亿-2亿元之间，然而借助高科技虚拟轨道，智轨列车的成本减少至5000万-1亿元之间。

Looks like an articulated bus to me....is it following the painted dashes or is there a buried cable it follows?

在我看起来就像是铰接式公交车

是沿着划出来的虚线走，还是说下面铺有地下电缆？
