The Bullet Train In Japan

It definaly isnt us. I don't know why.. uhmm but it is either Japan or france. I am going more on the Japan side. They have a speed that was not offcial, but yet many people swear by it, it's like 360 somthing.
Real fast.
But I know the normal ones around france and Japan normaly run around 320.
Here in Us, fastest speed limit I think for comuter is like 110.
Fastest they can go is only like 130.
us US has some catching up to do.

French "trains a grand vitesse" or TGV have been scheduled at up to 250kph while the Japanese Nozomi (Hope) train set on the Shinkansen line have been scheduled at up to 270kph.
("Ultimate Train" by Peter Herring, 2000, published by Dorling Kindersley.)
The present speed record is 574.8kph set on 3 April 2007 by a French TGV.

That would likely be France with their TGV train.
