Published:2023-01-01

      On December 30, 2022, the Chongqing East Ring Railway was put into operation. China Railway Chengdu Group Co., Ltd. operates two pairs of Fuxing Trains from the Chongqingbei Railway Station to the Chongqingxi Railway Station, and two pairs from the Chongqingxi Railway Station to the Shuitu Railway Station. In the future, regional groups will continue to operate more EMU trains to better meet the needs of their passengers.

  The Chongqing East Ring Railway connects a few trunk lines including the Chongqing-Guiyang Railway, Xiangyang-Chongqing Railway, Chongqing-Huaihua Railway, Lanzhou-Chongqing Railway, Chengdu-Chongqing High Speed Railway and Zhengzhou-Chongqing High Speed Railway, etc. Stations along the line are seamlessly connected with urban rail transit, urban public transport, civil aviation terminals and other public transport means, connecting major transport hubs such as the Chongqingdong Railway Station, Chongqingbei Railway Station, Chongqingxi Railway Station and Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport while helping build an integrated transport system consisting of railway, air, road and rail transit. At the same time, this railway works together with the planned high speed railway lines such as the Chongqing-Xian High Speed Railway to build an express channel for passenger flow transfer at the node of the trunk railway.
