The Taiwan High Speed Rail (traditional Chinese: 台灣高速鐵路, also known as the THSR) is a high-speed rail network that runs along the west coast of Taiwan. It is approximately 335.50 kilometers and runs from Taipei City to Kaohsiung City. It began operation on January 5, 2007. Express trains capable of traveling at up to 350 km/h (217 mph) travel from Taipei City to Kaohsiung City in roughly 90 minutes as opposed to 4.5 hours by conventional rail. (Wikipedia)
