The route covers 1,847 km against 1,793 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 Nanjing, Yangzhou, Hefei, Xi’an. The gap between arriving and leaving is 55 minutes, of which about 14 is walking.
If the connection is missed
