China Train Stations for High-Speed Trains

China's high speed train network is the longest in the world. Nearly all of it was built in recent year on new tracks and using brand new train stations. Most stations are built on the same model. however, we can distinguish between stations in large cities and stations in smaller towns.
We have produced a large number of videos to explain most key stations but not all. This video gives a generic overview of these stations built from clips taken all over Chine.
This video will help on what to expect when you go to China and travel by train.

青岛站，Qingdao station, this station is near the sea, and is a revamped version of the old station built by Germany colonial government

[@jetecotools6915]

这个视频介绍做的真不错！顶你！

[@Handi_Suyadi]

Just adding information, every station might could have different layout. Changsha station for example, waiting room and restaurant is located at same floor.

[@ChinaDIYTravel]

Right. As we say in the text, there is a good difference between those in big cities and smaller towns for example.

[@tonyblackie3277]

Hi, like the video, but hard to watch with the band along the bottom partially blocking video. Suggest different colour text :)

[@peeromapeero9512]

Tony Blackie I

[@cerathbhaskaran2813]

The first line of information mentioned above is wrong, I think you meant 'longest' not ' lowest ' . Very Impressive

[@nmew6926]

I travelled Beijing Shanghai by HSR in 2014. Awesome trip of 4hrs55, now reduced to 4hrs30. But beware taxi scam, fake taxi drivers at arriving hall.

[@banja1470]

Good one.

[@yunzanhu1005]

Great introductions! Thanks!

[@spencersong2660]

[@zorenwang2607]

[@kkx7790]

future historian will be amaze at China rapid development....

[@vowoovoowov]

Great India, I love it.

[@sarangabaishya963]

It's fully based on airport model

[@timlowe19]

When would you have a pink (non-magnetic) ticket?

[@ChinaDIYTravel]

Some old stations still have these older pink tickets.

[@pamsimonson5500]

How many tech support jobs do you think are involved in a train? Or a train station?! every company needs a IT guru

[@ChinaDIYTravel]

Tech support is at head office. i sus pecs that there is a ton of them.

[@noodels5123]

2:44 but the mens room often have a very strong smoke smell

[@如是我闻-h3z]

Daniel Li Daniel Li I'm sorry about that. Chinese men love smoking very much. Smoking is not allowed on high-speed trains and stations, so most of them smoke in the station's toilets.

[@pamsimonson5500]

Get drunk at Hooters then ride the train sounds like a great time to me

[@ChinaDIYTravel]

Hooters in Beijing is now closed ;-)

[@Hiets3253]

[@PgSP-c3d]

CHINA GOOD

[@auntclechris]

Meanwhile in Germany, you don't even have to pass through a gate or through security to get to the high speed train. The Chinese procedures seem kind of unnecessary and seem to just add additional stress from our viewpoint.

[@auntclechris]

@Kin FR L How is it a dumb comment? Also what is the point of your comment?

[@hong3170]

I understand your point. But You have to understand the Chinese volume and also people are not as well manner as in Germany. I used to travel the whole Germany by railway. It was great by interrail. No reservation needed. I can run to catch a train even just have 2 minutes left. If in China the railway stations open the platforms to everybody, there will be many accidents like the one just happened in Germany last month. Someone will be pushed into the track.

[@goldenn1086]

check what happened at Kunming rail station several years ago. passengers got killed by terrorists and since then security check is strictly required. it's very necessary

[@kajakkille]

The rigorous security and ticket control gives a certain "state paranoia" vibe, like without it the country would go into social and political chaos or worse, freedom of speech and thought.

[@ChinaDIYTravel]

Security is rather loose actually.

[@PravahanSalunke]

I am sure the setup for high speed trains is still less rigorous than that for air travel

[@jpdemontigny]

Strange logic. Actually security is a joke at train stations. Security at airports in the US is so much more strict. Any link with freedoms in the US? Just showing that your logic is flawed besides being factually incorrect.

[@hailyu791]

wow，with that logic no strange u got bombs in boston and london's metro trains

[@Tommy57736]

日本の新幹線も手荷物検査をやった方が良いかも。外国人が増えすぎて、昔の安全な日本とは違ってきていると思うのだが。

[@haihaiww58]

theres no baggage inspection for 新幹線?

[@byc6230]

why there is terrorism in Japan? Are the criminals also muslin?

[@byc6230]

I notice that u mentioned history education in China and Korea is different with Japan. I'm curious that what's the main difference between them and what's ur view of history in Japan. I'm ABC myself, and from what I learned in US they seems to have their right to hate u for the time before and during wwII.

[@edwin3162able]

Tommy Mika Stop spreading your bullshit here already, we all know what Japan had done in wwll. In case you are wondering, I'm Malaysia Chinese.

[@vivavivo5071]

Tommy Mika I love the ordinary Japanese people on the street but not the rightist who deny real history. Please learn to be humble from the Germans with respect to attitude towards WWII. Tq.

[@taoshen5078]

China's high-speed rail and my Japanese Shinkansen confrontation, of course, the Japanese Shinkansen won. 私に対して、中国の高速鉄道と日本の新幹線は、当然のことながら、日本の新幹線が勝っています。

[@ClearLove1289]

japo products= shit

[@PLA89751]

Tao Shen 新幹線？冗談しないで 。中国より勝ってない。

[@skysthelimitrai7590]

Tao Shen can you provide the reasons?

[@jililin2078]

Tao Shen Shinkansen's speed is under 300km per hour right?

[@akltom]

Tao Shen if using chinese standard, japan does not have high-speed rail. because japanese train all running less than 300km/h
