The China bullet train (beijing-shanghai high-speed train) began to serve since July 1. Have anyone experienced this train yet?
I am curious about the environment inside. And I just saw some pictures that some seats can be turned around in 360 degree. Is the room wide enough and convenient for travelers?
Welcome some comments about this train, both in positive and negative. Thanks!
Have anyone experienced the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed train?

I will be trying it out in August. I'm quite certain that the trains will be big enough to accomodate travellers
It's early days yet, and they are having some techinical issues occasionally.

There is a good review on flyertalk.com with lots of pictures. Cabin look like business class on planes and seats are flat type.
