Travelling Through France at Record Speeds
A French train with a 25,000-horsepower engine and special wheels broke the world speed record Tuesday 4th of April 2007. The record attempt took place on a track between Paris and the eastern city of Strasbourg. Reaching a top speed of 357.2 mph (574.8 kph) the bullet train cruised through the countryside to the amazement of clapping and cheering spectators. The train travelled almost as fast as a World War II Spitfire fighter at top speed as the train zoomed underneath bridges and across the French countryside.
