Shanghai - Nanchang Train
Nealy 40 pairs of trains are shutting between Shanghai and Nanchang. About 30 pairs of them are high speed trains taking 3 – 4.5 hours. The rest pairs are normal speed ones taking 9.5 – 17.5 hours. The Nanchang to Shanghai distance or vice versa by high speed train is 741 kilometers (460 miles) and by normal speed one is 817/886 kilometers (508/551 miles).
About 30 pairs of high speed G trains are running between Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station and Nanchang West Railway Station with duration of 3 – 4.5 hours. Most of them originate/end in Shanghai, while only a few end/originate at the other side, which means that most just have a short stopover in Nanchang for not exceeding 9 minutes. Those who take any of them should be prepared beforehand to get off/get on in time.

Direct Shanghai to Nanchang flights take only about 2 hours for a single journey. But if counting in the time consumed to/from airports which are further to downtown than railway stations, the total time on the way has no big difference with the traveling from Shanghai to Nanchang by train, especially by high speed train. Moreover, a flight ticket is expensive than a rail ticket. Also, frequent flight delays may affect the trip performance.
