There is no obvious difference for this short trip. G type is the fastest type and C type is designed for short trip,however, for this short trip, the duration is almost the same. You can just choose the suitable time and stations for this trip.
Can I also use the metro card for tickets as well?
Thank you
metro card cannot work for train.
However, we are sorry that we cannot offer rail pass booking service. Passengers need to buy it at appoint office of Bank of China. You can buy the card at the local office by using your travel document. Sorry for the helplessness on this issue.
