Tickets for the Shanghai-Hangzhou High Speed Railway.

The Shanghai–Hangzhou High-Speed Railway or Shanghai–Hangzhou Passenger Railway (Chinese: 沪杭客运专线 or 沪杭高速铁路), also known as the Huhang High-Speed Railway or Huhang Passenger Railway is a high-speed rail line in China between Shanghai and Hangzhou. The line is 202 km (126 mi) in length and designed for commercial train service at 350 km/h (217 mph). It was built in 20 months and opened on October 26, 2010. The line shortened travel time between the two cities from 78 to 45 minutes.^[2] The line is also used by trains departing Shanghai's terminals for Kunming and Shenzhen making it part of the Shanghai–Kunming High-Speed Railway and The Southeast Coast High-Speed Rail Corridor. It has made the proposed Shanghai–Hangzhou Maglev Line unlikely.

In October 2010, Chinese officials stated that a bullet train on the Huhang High-Speed Railway had set a new world record for train speed on a scheduled trip at 262 mph (422 km/h).^[4]

Etymology

"Hu" (沪) stands for "Shanghai" and "Hang"(杭) stands for Hangzhou, the capital city of Zhejiang Province.

On July 1, 2013, the new Hangzhou East station was opened which serves the Shanghai–Hangzhou Passenger Railway, as well as the Hangzhou–Ningbo High-Speed Railway, Nanjing–Hangzhou Passenger Railway.^[6] and the Hangzhou–Changsha High-Speed Railway
