G‑series high‑speed trains on the Shanghai to Handan route run from Shanghai Hongqiao to Handan East, mainly using CR400 Fuxing sets and some CRH380 units. Speeds reach 350 km/h (217 mph) on the Beijing–Shanghai section between Shanghai and Xuzhou East when operated by CR400, then run at about 300 km/h (186 mph) on the Xuzhou–Zhengzhou and Zhengzhou–Handan East segments. Typical travel time is about 5.5 to 6.5 hours with limited stops such as Nanjing South, Xuzhou East, Zhengzhou East, and Anyang East. In terms of onboard options, high‑speed trains offer Second, First, and Business Class seating, reserved seats, power outlets, and a trolley service; Wi‑Fi is available on many Fuxing services. For travelers prioritizing an overnight ride or arrival at the city‑center station, conventional Z/T trains run from Shanghai (main) to Handan (central) at up to 120–160 km/h (75–99 mph) and take roughly 12–16 hours, with Hard Seat, Hard Sleeper, and Soft Sleeper classes. High‑speed services are the quickest daytime option to Handan East, while Z/T trains provide a slower but direct link to Handan’s central station.
