Components
The main route of the Beijing–Harbin high-speed railway begins as the Beijing–Shenyang high-speed railway to the city of Shenyang. At Shenyang, the main route continues as part of the Harbin–Dalian high-speed railway, which travels from Harbin to Dalian via Shenyang. The remaining section of the Harbin–Dalian high-speed railway between Shenyang and Dalian serves as a branch route to Dalian as well as Yingkou, which is one of the termini of the Panjin–Yingkou high-speed railway. Here the Panjin–Yingkou high-speed railway is a short branch to the city of Panjin. At Panjin, the railway connects to the Qinhuangdao–Shenyang high-speed railway, which is part of the Beijing–Harbin Railway.Section | Description | Designed speed | Length | Construction start date | Open date |
