The G2724 high-speed train rolled out of the Shenzhen Railway Station in Luohu at 8:08 a.m. on Jan. 10. This was the first-ever high-speed train to pull out of the station in its more than 100 years' history, ushering in the high-speed train era.

On Jan.10, the Guangzhou Railway Group implemented the new train operation chart. The adjustment of the chart is to meet the passengers' needs better.

According to the new chart, the Shenzhen Railway Station will be handling 17 pairs of cross-line high-speed trains heading to Ganzhou, Jiangxi province; two pairs to Shanghai; one pair to Xuzhou, Jiangsu province; two pairs to Wuhan, Hubei province; one pair to Nanjing of Jiangsu; one pair to Hefei, Anhui province; one pair to Wuyuan of Jiangxi; and seven pairs to Nanchang of Jiangxi.

After the adjustment, it will take only seven hours and 43 minutes to go from Shenzhen to Nanjing by high-speed train and shorten the traveling time between Shenzhen and Shanghai by half.
