Fastest trains in China

This is a list of mainland China's fastest long-distance passenger trains by commercial speed (i.e., total distance covered divided by total time taken, including scheduled stoppages) faster than 160 km/h. Note that speed is computed only over the entire length of a train's run, and not for parts thereof.

List

Need update: The Beijing–Tianjin train schedule was changed on September 14, 2008.

Note: that the "transport price distance" is significantly longer than the real distance between Beijing South and Tianjin/Tianjin West. This table list distance in "transport price distance", but commercial speed by real distance.
