Practical Information for CRH Travelers

Luggage Guidelines on CRH Trains. Traveling on CRH services includes rules for carry-on and larger items. Below are key points to know when bringing luggage aboard high-speed services in China:

Luggage Allowance

Passengers may bring typical travel luggage; a common guideline is to keep each item within approximately 160 cm total dimensions (length + width + height) and a weight around 25 kg per piece where practical. Smaller carry-on bags fit in overhead racks or under seats.

Storage Facilities

CRH trains are equipped with overhead luggage racks and larger luggage areas at the end of each car for suitcases. Staff can advise where to place larger items to avoid blocking aisles or doors.

Special Items

Bulky items like bicycles, musical instruments or sports gear may require prior check or a dedicated space and are subject to availability and operator rules. Contact customer support or the rail operator before travel for exact requirements.

Rail travel to the Huzhou/Changxing railheads provides fast city-center to near-city-center connections and predictable timetables compared with long-distance buses. Buses offer direct routes to Anji but with longer road travel times and variable traffic. Flights are not practical for this short regional journey due to airport transfers and limited time savings. For overall travel between Shanghai and Anji, the rail plus local transfer option is typically the best balance of speed and city access.

Plus, it’s a greener choice, reducing your carbon footprint
