Harbin-Dalian high-speed rail to reach speeds of 300 km/h

By Zhao Lei | China Daily | Updated: 2013-04-11 14:11

The world's first high-speed railway operating in extremely low temperatures will begin service on April 21 that can reach speeds of up to 300 kilometers per hour.

The 921-km line linking Harbin, capital of China's northernmost province of Heilongjiang, and the port city of Dalian, Liaoning province, currently operates at 200 km per hour based on its winter schedule.

Since the line opened on Dec 1, it has withstood tests of extremely low temperatures and inclement weather and proved safe and reliable, said Gao Wen, deputy director of Shenyang Railway Bureau, which manages the line.

By the end of March, there had been 9.4 million passenger trips on the line, an average of 78,000 per day, he said, adding that 136,000 passenger trips were made each day during the 40-day Spring Festival travel peak, substantially alleviating the heavy transport burden in regions along the line.

The top speed of the bullet train on the line will be 350 km per hour, but for the initial stage, they will travel with caution at slower speeds, according to railway officials.

During the line's winter schedule, normally from December to April, trains will travel at 200 km per hour, and for the rest of the year, speeds will reach 300 km per hour. Ticket prices will vary based on the speeds.

After the summer schedule is adopted, the travel time from Harbin and Dalian will be three and an half hours instead of the current five hours and 18 minutes, according to Gao.

Meanwhile, the line will continue operating trains that run at 200 to 250 km per hour to cater to passengers who prefer the lower speed or cannot afford the higher price.

Under the summer schedule, a ticket for a first-class seat on the faster train from Harbin to Dalian costs 645.5 yuan ($104) and a second-class seat 403.5 yuan.
