Most of them run overnight from/to Guangzhou North Railway Station, and K1095/1096 and K201/K202 use Guangzhou Baiyun Railway Station. In the other side, all of them are operated at Chongqing North Railway Station. It is connected with downtown area by subway 4line 10 and city buses.

One thing to be noticed is that you'd better purchase a sleeper for the long journey and you are recommended to buy the sleeper tickets in advance because they are in great demands most of the time. With a sleeper, you can have a good rest during the night and then travel around energetically upon arrival.

Besides, they also pass by the following stations:
Guangzhou North, Yingde, Foshan, Zhaoqing, Yangchun, Maiming East, Maoming, Huazhou, Hechun, Wendi, Yulin, Shaoguan East, Pingshi, Chenzhou, Hengyang, Zhuzhou, Changsha, Yueyang, Xiangtan, Loudi, Xinhua, Xupu, Chibi, Xianning, Wuchang, Jingshan, Zhongxiang, Jingmen, Huaihua, Yichang East, Badong, Enshi, Lichuan, Wanzhou, Liangping, Kaijiang, Dazhou, Quxian, Guangan, Yuping, Shenyuan, Shibing, Kaili, Guiding, Guiyang, Guigang, Laibin, Liuzhou, Rongshui, Sanjiangxian, Yatunbao, Rongan, Tongdao, Jingzhou, Huitong, Tongren, Songtao, Xiushan, Youyang, Qianjiang, Zunyi, Tongzi, Ganshui, Qijiang, Pengshui, Wulong, Fuling, and Changshou
