The fastest trains in Portugal are Alfa Pendular trains, which can reach speeds of up to 220 km/h (137 mph) on certain routes. These trains operate on the main railway lines connecting major cities like Lisbon, Porto, Braga, and Faro.
The fastest average speed attained by a train on a scheduled service is about 320 km/h (199 mph) by high-speed trains like the Shinkansen in Japan or the TGV in France. These trains operate on dedicated high-speed rail tracks to achieve such speeds.
The fastest French train is the TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse) which has held the world record for the fastest conventional wheeled train, reaching speeds of up to 357.2 mph (574.8 km/h) during tests. In regular service, TGV trains typically operate at speeds of around 186 mph (300 km/h) on dedicated high-speed rail lines.
Solar trains are not yet widespread globally, but some countries and regions have started to adopt them as a more sustainable mode of transportation. Solar-powered trains are more commonly found in places like Australia and India, where renewable energy initiatives are more prominent. However, their implementation is still limited compared to traditional diesel or electric trains.
Subway trains typically run on electricity that powers electric motors in the train cars. The electricity can come from a variety of sources, including overhead wires, third rails, or onboard batteries.

Its not the speed over the roadbed that counts (all 3 are about the same) but the fact that unit trains do not need to be classified at each intermediary yard that makes them the "fastest".
There are several manufacturers of fast trains all over the world. Some of the manufacturers that produce the fastest trains include Bombardier Alstom, Shinkansen, Caradia, and Siemens.
Fast I am assuming.
I think it is still the Japanese bullet train.

No, but there is a project mothballed due to the current economic crisis.
Some of the fastest trains in the world are Belgium's HSL-1, China's CRH380A, Germany's Transrapid TR-09 , Japan's Shinkansen train, and Shangai's magnetic levitation (maglev) train.

Airplanes are the fastest way to travel a long distance. - Over short distances, some trains may be faster
The fastest way to travel in 1869 was by train, specifically steam trains. These trains could reach speeds of up to 60-70 miles per hour, making them the quickest mode of transportation available at that time.
