Chongqing−Lichuan Railway

Chongqing−Lichuan Railway

The Chongqing-Lichuan Railway, or the Yuli Railway (simplified Chinese: 渝利铁路; traditional Chinese: 渝利鐵路; pinyin: Yú-Lì Tiělù) is a railway under construction in the Chinese province of Hubei and the municipality of Chongqing. The 244-km long railway will connect Chongqing North Railway Station with the Lichuan Station on the Yiwan Railway, and thus provide direct access from Chongqing to the future Huhanrong Passenger Dedicated Line, which extends to Wuhan, Nanjing, and Shanghai. [1]

The trains will be traveling on the Yuli line with the speed up to 200 km/h. It is said that when the Yuli Railway and the relevant sections of the Huhanrong mainline are completed, one will be able to travel from Chongqing to Shanghai in just 8 hours.[1]
