New Chengdu - Hefei High Speed Railway Route

A high speed railway along Yangtze River is being built which will connect Shanghai, Nanjing, Hefei, Wuhan, Chongqing, and Chengdu. The part of Hefei - Chengdu is basically parallel to the existing high speed line, but the designed top speed is 350km/h (217 mph), 100 km/h (66 mph) faster, so the travel time between the two cities will be shortened to about 5 hours. It is estimated that the project will be completed in 2023.

Questions & Answers on Chengdu - Hefei Train

Asked by Patten from USA | Sep. 25, 2019 23:55

Is there child ticket discount for first class seats?

Also, is there any meal included as it is a long trip to Hefei?

Answers (1)

Answered by Paula from CANADA | Sep. 26, 2019 18:45

The discount policy works for all seat type, so it is also 50% off for first class. I think there is no free meal offered, it is just price for seats. But some snacks may offered. You can buy box meal on train or take your own food.

Asked by Nannie from USA | Apr. 16, 2019 02:26

When I search on your website, it listed "Chengdu"

Is this North Station? Some other listed "Chengdu East". Want to make sure if I selected the right one.

Thank you for your inquiry.

It is just Chengdu Railway Station, but yes, it is also called North Railway Station by local people. The metro stop there is also called North Railway Station. Hope this information can help you.

What does this "New Soft Sleeper" mean? Is this better than first class?

Answers (1)

Answered by Freda from RUSSIA | Dec. 07, 2018 00:45

They are just soft sleeper beds, 4 beds in each cabin. It called "new" as it is on high speed ride instead of slow types. Personally speaking, I prefer sleeper bed since the trip last for nearly 10 hours. It is good to lie down for a whole.
