Work begins on high-speed railway to China-Vietnam border - Gas Regulator

 

Construction of the 47.6 kilometers railway between Dongxing and Fangchenggang, both in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, will take three years and cost 6.48 billion yuan ($980 million), according to the municipal government of Fangchenggang.

 

Trains on the Dongxing-Fangchenggang line will run up to 250 km per hour. Fangchenggang is already connected with regional capital Nanning by high-speed rail.

 

Dongxing is located at the China-Vietnam border. Authorities say the line will eventually form part of a trans-Asia railway linking China with Southeast Asian countries. -  Gas Regulator
