Practical Information for High-Speed Train Travelers

Luggage icon
Luggage Guidelines on G-series high-speed trains. Rules cover carry-on items and larger suitcases. Below are key points to know when bringing luggage aboard Beijing to Xi'an high-speed services:
Luggage Allowance
Passengers may bring up to two pieces of luggage aboard G-series trains. Each item should not exceed 160 cm in total dimensions (width + height + depth) and a recommended weight limit of 25 kg per piece to fit storage areas and aisle access.
Storage Facilities
High-speed trains provide overhead shelves for small bags and dedicated luggage racks near car doors for suitcases. Place larger items on the racks and keep smaller items in the overhead or at your feet to avoid blocking walkways.
Special Items
For bicycles, large musical instruments or bulky sports equipment, check carrier rules in advance. Space for special items is limited and may require pre-approval or early boarding to secure room for oversized goods.
