Is that in regular service or just some kind of trial operation? How many of those have been ordered?

It should be 240 sets for around 10 billion $ in 4 deals according to a table posted here 1 year ago

I don't think so, the CRH3G lacks the middle door the CRH6 high volume commuter train has, so it's probably designed for the traditional 200-250km CRC CRH service. Not metro company operated commuter service that CRH6 is designed for.

I think the CLs have been put into regular operation.

That is a beautiful looking high speed commuter train! Any idea where these pictures were taken? Looking at the background, always cranes and new buildings going up in China!

The location is Puzheng factory (Nanjing) of China South Railway (CSR). Yes 160-200km/h CRHs are perfect for intercity or commuter rails.

After getting their own HSR projects killed years ago I'm glad they are again assembling high speed EMUs for CRH.

I now wonder about the other CRH6 model, it seems that news about that one has died off completely, I never heard about them being competitors but that might be a possibility.

Although I like design of the CL, I wonder what it is, I was thinking the velaro platform with a nosejob?

That's what it looks at least.

However I wonder about technical specs of all CRH trains in general.

To my understanding the original 350km/h rated CRH3 is essentially a Siemens Velaro (and so it is called - Velaro CN). It's all clear regarding other early CRH versions including 1, 2 and 5 as well as well as CRH380D/DL).

But what about other CRH380 versions? Some look identical like their 'predecessors' while others have design modifications. Are the components (like bogies, traction) also taken from the first generation CRH trains or are there some new and unique components? Or perhaps taken from completely different trains? It has been claimed that Chinese companies 'hold intellectual property rights' to the technology used in CRH380A (and other?) trainsets but I wonder what actual technologies are used, where they come from and are they new or existing/modified?

Does this cover all the CRH trains?

Difficult to see because some of the trains are far away. It seems you are missing the low-speed version of the CRH6 (with the round/flat front).
