High-speed rail will be added

Yesterday, both the National Summer Games and the National  Adjustment Plan were launched simultaneously. Beijing  Bureau will operate 512.5 pairs of trains, with the number of high-speed trains operating reaching 60% of all trains. Yesterday, the first high-speed train from Beijing to Xiamen took only 13 hours. At the same time, in order to facilitate passenger travel, Beijing  also opened two additional "Red Eye" high-speed trains to Harbin West on weekends for the first time.

Beiqing Daily learned from  in Beijing that the two "red eye" high-speed trains are G2583 (departing from 2:32 in the south of Beijing and arriving at Harbin West at 9:04 the next day) and G2581 (departing from 1:43 in the south of Beijing and arriving at Harbin West at 8:46 the next day), which are concentrated on weekends and operate from July 4th to September 1st.

According to staff, normal high-speed trains usually end operation after midnight and undergo maintenance and upkeep of the lines and trains at night. This time, in order to ensure and alleviate the pressure of traveling to the northeast during the summer vacation, the  department will adjust the maintenance time and put it into night operation.
