Beijing to Hong Kong Train
- G‑series highspeed trains: Direct G trains run between Beijing West and Hong Kong West Kowloon on the Beijing–Guangzhou–Shenzhen–Hong Kong highspeed corridor. Services are typically operated with CR400 “Fuxing” sets (and some CRH380 variants) and are marketed as G‑numbered highspeed trains. Operational speeds are generally 300–350 km/h (186–217 mph); the fastest direct services cover the full route in roughly 8–10 hours depending on the number of stops. Typical intermediate stops include Shijiazhuang, Zhengzhou East, Wuhan, Changsha South, Guangzhou South and often Shenzhen North before entering Hong Kong West Kowloon. Onboard classes are Business, First and Second, with power outlets, reclining seats and trolley/café service; Business class offers larger, more private seating.
- Overnight conventional sleeper trains: Conventional long‑distance services on the older Beijing–Guangzhou mainline (T/Z/K series) serve Beijing West to Guangzhou (Guangzhou East/Guangzhou). These conventional trains run at line speeds up to about 160 km/h (99 mph) on major sections and typically take around 20–24 hours to reach Guangzhou; passengers then transfer to regional/through services to reach Hong Kong. Accommodation options include Soft Sleeper, Hard Sleeper and Hard Seat, and these trains are used for overnight travel where schedules or fare levels make them preferable.
- Practical routing notes: Most travelers choose a direct G highspeed train for a single‑seat journey into Hong Kong West Kowloon (G79/G80 are examples of direct pairs), while the conventional sleepers require a transfer to cross into Hong Kong. Border/immigration controls are handled at Hong Kong West Kowloon station for the highspeed services.
