Yuehan railway

Yuehan railway

The Yuehan railway (粤汉铁路) is an older railway now incorporated into the Jingguang Railway. The older Canton–Hankou Railway ran from Guangzhou to Wuchang. Another line, the Peiking – Hankou Railway ended across the river at Hankou. Before the First Chang River Bridge was built in 1957, linking the two railways it could take up to an entire day to barge railcars across the river to the other line.
