Common questions about China Railway

What does China Railway run?

China Railway runs 14848 of the Trains routes we sell, calling at 573 places across 2 countries. Those routes come from the published operator catalogue rather than from a list we wrote, so a route only appears here if the carrier actually serves it.

How much do China Railway tickets cost?

The cheapest China Railway fare we sell is €11.88 for one passenger, across 14,848 routes. The median route runs 153 km in a straight line. Fares include taxes, supplier fees and our service fee, so the figure here is the figure at checkout.

Are China Railway tickets refundable?

China Railway fares are refundable up to two hours before departure and can be changed at no charge, across all 14,848 routes we sell. The condition is shown again on the offer and once more before you pay, because it is the thing travellers most often get wrong.

What is on board an China Railway service?

China Railway publishes Power sockets, Wi-Fi across its fleet, on the 14,848 routes we sell. A median journey with this carrier runs about 1h 6m, which is long enough for the difference between a carrier with power sockets and one without to matter.

What is the longest route China Railway runs?

The longest China Railway route we sell runs from Chéngguān Qū to Linqiong, 1,198 km in a straight line. A median journey with this carrier takes about 1h 6m at their typical cruising speed, so the long routes are considerably more than that.

Where does China Railway operate?

China Railway is based in China and runs routes we sell in 2 countries. The places it calls at most often are Nanjing, Qingdao, Zibo. Those are computed from the routes in the catalogue rather than from anything the carrier tells us about its own network.

Where these numbers come from

Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modelled number pass for a filed one.

We cannot promise Kaifeng railway station still has a left luggage office, because plenty of stations closed theirs.

Left luggage lockers

Somewhere to leave the bags in Kaifeng?
