【新唐人2011年6月23日訊】中國鐵道部前科技司長兼副總工程師周翊民日前踢爆，遭到雙規的原鐵道部長劉志軍, 為追求「世界第一」，買了外國時速300公里的高鐵技術，卻硬要將時速提升至350甚至380公里，不顧安全係數，罔顧人民安全。
周翊民接受《21世紀經濟報導》訪問時表示，即將開通於京滬高鐵上的動車組CRH380，原型分別從日本新幹線和德國西門子進口，這些國外高鐵巨頭跟鐵道部簽合同的時候，明確規定他們出售的車，最高時速只能達到300公里, 劉志軍卻因為好大喜功，為爭世界第一，硬要提速，把安全係數用到盡，誇大了引進的日本、德國高鐵技術的運營速度，將老百姓的生命拿來開玩笑當兒戲。
據了解，周翊民曾問過德國西門子中國公司的交通運輸部門總裁，對鐵道部將高鐵運營速度定位350公里的看法，他獲得的答復是：“第一，我們只要有訂單，你們在中國怎麼說我們不管；第二，我賣給你的車是300公里，你們超過300公里的運營出了問題，我們不負責任；第三，不能出口，我們的技術轉讓給你，只能在中國使用。”
周翊民強調，這個高鐵技術不是中國自己的設計，一旦出現問題，後果不堪設想。
稍早之前，鐵道部副部長胡亞東曾表示，京滬高鐵降低運營速度，並不是由於建設不達標、安全不可靠，而是考慮到電力消耗、動車組、線路等主要設備設施的損耗、以及不同速度列車的調度安排等考慮，綜合確定。
對此，周翊民表示，依據他的計算，16節的「和諧號」以時速300公里運行時，功率為1.44萬千瓦，而時速380公里的功率則是2.24萬千瓦，「速度增加了27%，可是能耗要增加56%。」他指出，“實驗速度和運營速度是兩碼事，但是鐵道部卻將『試驗速度』宣傳成中國的新發明。
中國高鐵運行雖然不過幾年，但是問題不斷，「武廣線」就曾發生過一個電機端蓋飛出來；而北京到瀋陽的動車多次因中途故障而停車。另外，太原到石家莊的「石太線」才建了兩年，已經出現沉降，最大處達到四十厘米。
大陸網民怒斥鐵道部罔顧國民生命安全，更呼籲「槍斃劉志軍，燒了鐵道部」。

Train’s High Speed Fabricated
Top engineer from the Railway Ministry,
Zhou Yimin, disclosed the ministry』s fabrication
of train speed of 350 and 380 km per hour.
Liu Zhijun, Former railway minister,
was responsible for the false claim, disregarding
passenger safety. Liu is under investigation.
Zhou Yimin said to 21th Century Business Herald
that the CRH380 train from Beijing to Shanghai
was prototyped from imported technology
from Japan’s bullet train and Germany’s Siemens.
The original contract had 300 km/h speed limit.
But former minister Liu Zhijun exaggerated
the speed limit, disregarding safety.
Zhou Yimin once asked the transportation CEO
of Siemens’s China office about the 350km/hour
train speed that China set for its high-speed train.
The CEO replied in three points, “We take orders,
and what you claim in China does not concern us.
We sold a 300km/hour train to you,
and are not responsible if you exceed the speed.
This transferred technology is limited to China.”
Zhou Yimin said China did not design the train,
and the result is unthinkable if problems occur.
Earlier, Deputy Railway Minister Hu Yadong
said the Beijing-Shanghai train has reduced speed,
but not because of safety. Speed reduction
is related to electricity cost, motorized carriages,
equipment depreciation, and speed coordination.
Zhou Yimin calculated that a 16-carriage train
at 300 km/hour uses 14,400 KW power,
but the speed of 350km/h uses 24,400 KW power.
27% increase in speed cost 56% more power.
Zhou said, “Test and actual speed is different,
and the Railway Ministry wanted to use
test speed on its newly-invented train. “
High-Speed trains have operated in China
for a few years, with various problems.
The Wuhan-Guangzhou train once had its
motor cover flying out; the Beijing-Shenyan train
has frequent technical problems.
The railway linking Taiyuan and Shijiazhuang
sank by up to 40mm after two years.
Chinese netizens criticize the Railway Ministry,
calling for the worst fate of Liu Zhijun.
