The C6402 high-speed train, the first public service on the 245-km stretch of railway between Chongqing North Station and Wanzhou city, departed the station for the first time on Nov 28, 2016. Designed for a speed of around 250 km per hour, the travelling time between Chongqing and Wanzhou, where China’s Three Gorges reservoirs are located, will be cut from four hours to 90 minutes. The opening of the railway has vastly improved the regional transportation network in Southwest China. [Photo/liangjiang.gov.cn]
