Does snow affect the bullet train?

The weather has an effect on bullet trains.

In most cases, light snow and medium snow have relatively little influence on motor trains. This is because the design and operation of bullet trains take into account various weather conditions, including a certain degree of snowfall. The track and power supply system of the bullet train can usually withstand a certain degree of snow and freezing, so the bullet train can still run normally in the case of light snow and medium snow.

But when the snowfall increases to the level of blizzard or heavy snow, the situation is different. A large amount of snow may freeze the turnout and catenary facilities of the bullet train, which are the key components for the normal operation of the bullet train.
