The railway is dedicated to high speed passenger rail service.[2] The line is 856\u00a0km (532\u00a0mi) in length and can carry trains at speeds of up to 250\u00a0km\/h (155\u00a0mph).[1] The line was built from 2008 to 2014 and opened on December 26, 2014.The line traverses rugged karst terrain in Guizhou and Guangxi and relies on extensive bridges and tunnels, which comprise 83% of the line’s total length.[2] The travel time by train between the two terminal cities was reduced from 20 hours to 4 hours.[1] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsHistory[edit]Stations[edit]Accidents and incidents[edit]References[edit]History[edit] Construction progress on the Guiyang\u2013Guangzhou high-speed railway, bridge over the Xingping Reservoir in Xingping district of Yangshuo county, Guilin, August 2013The Guiguang HSR was a major trunk route planned in the 11th Five Year Plan by the Chinese government. It is designed to serve as a rapid rail link between the southwest China and the Pearl River Delta. Construction began in 2008 and was completed in 2014. The line was built to accommodate train speeds of up to 250\u00a0km\/h (155\u00a0mph), with the capacity to be remodelled to allow train speeds of up to 300\u00a0km\/h (186\u00a0mph). (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The Guiguang HSR takes a more direct route between its terminal cities, and crosses exceptionally difficult and mountainous terrain, which made construction very costly. The project cost an estimated 85.8 billion RMB (USD$12.5 billion),[3] although this figure was later revised to 94.6 billion RMB (USD$13.8 billion).[4]The line runs from Guangzhou through Foshan, Sanshui and Zhaoqing in the densely populated Pearl River Delta and then crosses the Lingnan mountain range via Huaiji into Guangxi. It continues in a northwesterly direction through Hezhou and Zhongxiang to the famed scenic cities of Yangshuo and Guilin and then on to Sanjiang. The line enters Guizhou at Congjiang near the southeast tip of the province and passes Rongjiang, Sandu, Duyun, and Longli on to Guiyang in the center of the province.This line traverses 270 tunnels and 510 valleys across the karst landscape.[2] Bridges and tunnels account for 83% of the line’s total length, including 92% in Guizhou.[2] A total of 238 tunnels, totaling 464\u00a0km (288\u00a0mi), were built along route including nine tunnels over 10\u00a0km (6.2\u00a0mi) in length.[1] The longest tunnel, through the Yan Mountain in Rongjiang, is 14.693\u00a0km (9.130\u00a0mi).[1]Stations[edit]Accidents and incidents[edit]4 June 2022 \u2013 Around 10:30AM CST, train D2809 derailed\u00a0[zh] at Rongjiang railway station following a collision with landslide just after exiting the Yuezhai Tunnel entrance.[5][6] Leading to the death of the driver who noticed an “abnormality” on the track and engaged the emergency brakes and minimized the disaster.[7] Upon derailing train slid more than 900 meters.[8] The front car of the train swept out to the opposing track and finally stopped wedged on to the platform Rongjiang railway station. One crew member and seven passengers sustained injuries.[9] Train G2929 passed through the tunnel normally and entered Rongjiang railway station 15 minutes earlier, meaning the landslide happened quite suddenly.[10] Repair work of the line was completed and resumed normal operation the next day.[11]References[edit]Italics: under construction or currently not operational(-), Place A-: section under construction or currently not operational\u00a7: in\/related to Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan(Place A\u2013Place B): share tracks with other lines (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki41\/guiyang-guangzhou-high-speed-railway-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Guiyang\u2013Guangzhou high-speed railway – Wikipedia"}}]}]
