In developing countries, locomotives which are featured as cheap, mid-speed, durable in severe conditions are popular. CRRC(China Railway) focuses on that kind of demand.
In terms of train demand, developing countries can be categorized into two types. One is a country which want to launch long distance rails and can afford to buy high speed trains. Another is a country which needs the same one but can't afford it.
