High-speed railway in Heilongjiang passes milestones

Currently, 61 pairs of trains operate daily, growing from 23 initially.

Passengers from Heilongjiang can reach more than 10 provincial-level regions directly via the line and all regions with high-speed rail in China after transfer.

With the Harbin-Dalian line as the beginning, high-speed railway construction in the province has seen rapid development.

The rail network, including Harbin-Qiqihar, Harbin-Mudanjiang, Harbin-Jiamusi and Mudanjiang-Jiamusi, covers 80 percent of the province's population and is expected to accelerate regional economic development, meet demand for a better travel experience and provide support for the economic growth of Northeast China, the railway company said.
