How far it really runs
The route covers 687 km against 667 km in a straight line, a detour of 3 percent. Track and road geometry account for the difference.
Where the change is
Connections are made at Guangzhou, Wenzhou, Fuzhou, Xiamen. The gap between arriving and leaving is 74 minutes, of which about 5 is walking.
If the connection is missed
The tightest connection we sell here has a 13 percent chance of not being made on the timetable alone. Part of this journey is a self transfer between separate tickets, so leave more time than the minimum and expect to check in again.
First and last departure
The first service of the day leaves Changsha at 06:32 and the last at 07:30, across 6 departures. The return direction keeps its own timetable, so the times back are not these times reversed.
