Best Answer

It wasn't a bullet train.

It's a standard commuter train similar to subway trains around the world. These tend to go at relatively slow speeds.

What she is saying is that between stations she jumped from her original train to one going the other way when the both slowed down to pass one another. Dangerous but she's a skilled athlete and gymnast..and she's suitably motivated to escape.

So, she ended back up at Pudu station. You might notice that the second train she was on pulls out of the station revealing here presence to Mac.
