High-speed services from Shanghai to Hebi are typically operated by G-series Fuxing EMUs (CR400), offering Second Class, First Class, and on many Shanghai–Zhengzhou segments, Business Class. The fastest itinerary runs Shanghai Hongqiao to Zhengzhou East at up to 350 km/h (217 mph), then a same-station transfer to a G-series train to Hebi East, which usually operates at 300–310 km/h (186–193 mph). With efficient connections, total travel time is about 4 to 5 hours, with stops focused on major hubs such as Nanjing South, Xuzhou East, and Zhengzhou East. In contrast, conventional K/Z services run from Shanghai (often from Shanghai Railway Station) to Hebi on the classic Jingguang corridor at around 120–160 km/h (75–99 mph). These trains make more intermediate stops and take roughly 10 to 13 hours, but provide sleeper options (hard and soft) alongside seated classes and a dining car. Travelers prioritizing time typically choose the Fuxing high-speed combination via Zhengzhou East, while those seeking an overnight ride can opt for the classic K/Z trains to Hebi.
