China HSR News And Information: Original Translation

[AndrewJin]

Yes, China needs to spread out all the new cars people bought. Cannot be too concentrated in the Eastern part of China.

My comment is in response to a combat between two adjacent counties for this Zhengzhou-Wanzhou HSR, because only one of them will have a HSR station.

My comment is in response to a combat between two adjacent counties for this Zhengzhou-Wanzhou HSR, because only one of them will have a HSR station.

Oh I know. But if they don't get a HSR, can they get more interconnected roads and highways to compensate?

China by HSR in 37 days
A 37-day journey by Chinese high-speed railway is proposed
for the upcoming summer vocation.

“遍布全国的高铁网给了一次全国联游的契机”, 苏峰向记者介绍，37天游遍全国是他提议推出来的一条线路，当然，不可能乘坐高铁真的走遍中国大地，但是确实能游走全国大多数出名的景点景区，包含三山五岳，六大古都等。选择这条线路的游客，绝对能成为骨灰级玩家。

■线路设计，只找最合适
“这条线路绝对用了我很多心血，虽然最后形成了一条37天的线路，囊括了很多知名景点，但是，里面还有遗憾，有些高铁沿线景点，因为时间和优化线路的目的，最后没有选进来。”苏峰一开始就告诉记者，他们对这条线路的遗憾。
■37天可环游中国
“从广州出发到福建、江西、浙江、山东、北京、山西、西安、河南、湖北、湖南最后再到广西回到广州，沿线有六大古都、五岳名山、四大名楼、三大名湖、最美两大沙滩、古城、水乡，还有亚洲最神秘的原始森林神农架、世界最大的水利工程长江三峡大坝等等这些耳熟能详的著名景观一次玩遍。”苏峰介绍，这就是他策划推出的环游中国线路，这条线路几乎囊括了从幼儿园到大学期间，所有语文书上面知名的中国历史名都、景点，把中国的名山大川几乎游览一次，这样的契机，就是高铁网线建设达到的效果。而这样组合一条线路，绝对是一个庞大的工程，选择最好的景点景区，选择最优化的线路，而这样一个线路的推出，也是圆自己的梦想。相信很多人都有一个环游世界的梦想，听起来浪漫，自由，可是迫于现实的种种，能走出这一步的寥寥无几，而环游中国，听起来，大多数人都可以做到，只要你想。重要的是，这次旅程不是一次走马观花，因为高铁的介入，使得每天深入景点了解古城，登临高山的时间，还是比较充裕的。但是，有一点确实是每到一个地方，只能到当地最著名的景区景点。例如第一周，从广州出发，到达厦门的鼓浪屿然后是游览土楼，攀登武夷山，到南昌的滕王阁、鄱阳湖、三清山，再去婺源和黄山……这样的旅程，会让人终生难忘。
■旅程还可分段进行
“这绝对不会是一次简单的旅程，需要体力，更需要强大的精神力，因为一路会看到中国五千年的历史繁华。”苏峰告诉记者，如果是将这个线路进行分解，进行常规的高铁游，那就需要花至少65天的时间。而在很多人眼里，这次环游中国的旅行，它其实不是一次普通的旅游，而是一次中国历史文化之旅，这段经历，可能需要很久去消化感悟。而对于一些去过很多地方的人，可以将这个中国游再进行分解，从这个旅途中就可以感受到，设计时的心思，这个旅程可以一次37天完成，也可以根据自己的时间，进行多次，分段旅游，最后完成。例如，可以直接乘坐高铁到厦门，也可以直接到浙江作为旅游始发，这条线路进行拆分，高铁沿线的美食、酒店、景点可以进行任意组合。

Oh I know. But if they don't get a HSR, can they get more interconnected roads and highways to compensate?

Well, expressway is literally everywhere in China, especially in mideast. There are enough high-quality roads in the province where those two cities are located. It's not about ordinary roads, it's about 350kph high speed railway which will make the 1000km trip to Beijing in 3 hours.

So they will have to travel to a neighboring county or province by car to get on the HSR station right and go from there?

There will be bus. In some other cases, there are several methods,
1, build a joint station in the middle of two counties;
2, two stations but the route is zigzag

China's new rail giant bags first overseas deal from India

By Cai Muyuan (chinadaily.com.cn)

China Railway Rolling Stock Corp Ltd (CRRC) will provide 14 subway trains with 112 carriages in total to Kolkata, India, said the company on Tuesday.

This is the first overseas order that CRRC has received. The train giant, a merger of CNR Corp and CSR Corp, got this order from its subsidiary company - CNR Dalian Locomotive and Rolling Stock Company in February.

As the third-biggest city in India, Kolkatawill replace the old trains that have been running for over 30 years in its south-north subway line which reaches a length of 23.45 km in order to ease the transportation pressure.

According to the company, this is the first time that CNR Dalian has entered the market of South Asia.

CRRC started trading on the Shanghai and Hong Kong bourses on Monday, becoming the world's biggest rail conglomerate in terms of market value and sales.

You got to watch this, a promotion micro film for train Y667/668(y means tourism)
Encounter Dunhuang
邂逅敦煌号（正片）—在线播放—优酷网，视频高清在线观看
@Azizam @ahojunk @powastick @TaiShang @Edison Chen @Shotgunner51 @Yizhi @HRM YANG @cirr @Gufi et al


Y667 Lanzhou-Dunhuang (1133km,12 hours, 18:00-6:46)
Y668 Dunhuang-Lanzhou (1133k, 11 hours 20:10-7:26)
I think this is better than going to Dunhuang by CRH which stops 100km away on the Lanzhou-Xinjiang main line(Dunhuang is not on the main line).

The ticket fare is the SAME as other overnight trains, 244yuan($39) for hard bed, 381yuan($61) for soft bed.
It's not that super luxurious train like $1000 per day, very affordable!

Good news can you plz post the pics of the cars you will send

 

[AndrewJin]

In previous ticket booking policy, passengers can only change time, train number, and seat but can not change destination station. From 10 June (pls download the newest APP), passengers are allowed to change their destination using APP or at the ticket counter of railway stations 48 hours before departure.

@ahojunk What's the point for CR to instal bilingual automatic ticket machines do you think? You have to go to railway ticket office anyway since you don't have Chinese ID card.

Great, a convenient and flexible booking system is a key to further facilitate the rail transport in China.

But only mainlanders with ID can use TVMs, this should be changed.
