High-speed trains on the Shanghai to Jianou route offer Second, First, and Business Class seating with reserved seats throughout. The fastest option is the G-series Fuxing service (typically CR400/CR300 sets), reaching up to 350 km/h (217 mph) between Shanghai Hongqiao and Hangzhou East, then continuing over 250 km/h (155 mph) sections via Huangshan North and Wuyishan North to Jian'ou North, the high-speed station for Jianou; end-to-end travel is usually about 4 hours 30 minutes to 5 hours 30 minutes with limited stops. In comparison, D-series EMU trains (CRH1/CRH2) run mostly at 200–250 km/h (124–155 mph), call at more intermediate stations, and take roughly 5.5 to 7 hours; selected timetables may involve a same-platform change at Hangzhou East or Shangrao. Both services provide power outlets, tray tables, and trolley sales; seat layouts are 2+3 in Second Class, 2+2 in First, and 1+2 in Business on some sets. Choose a G-series train for the shortest time and fewer stops, while D-series offers broader stop coverage and generally lower fares.
