Train Travel Tips

There are four train stations in Beijing and two in Nanjing. All of the G high-speed trains operate between Beijing South and Nanjing South railway stations. The D high-speed trains operate from Beijing South and Beijing railway stations.

The stations are quite a distance apart from each other so you may miss your train if you go to the incorrect departure station. It is important to read your ticket information carefully in advance.

You can show the name of your departure station in Chinese to the taxi driver if necessary.
