Practical Information for CRH Travelers

Luggage icon
Luggage Guidelines on CRH and conventional trains. Rules cover carry-on and large items for both high-speed and regional services. Below are key points for bringing luggage aboard CRH trains:
Luggage Allowance
Typical allowance permits two pieces of luggage plus one small carry-on. For CRH services, recommended maximum combined dimension per item is under 250 cm and weight commonly limited by practicality rather than strict per-piece limits on high-speed services.
Storage Facilities
High-speed CRH cars include overhead racks and designated luggage areas at the car ends. Conventional trains provide larger luggage bays and under-seat space for smaller items; always label belongings and keep valuables with you.
Special Items
Bicycles, musical instruments or bulky sports equipment may require advance notice or special arrangements. Availability for these items varies by train type and regional operator, so check before travel.

Rail travel combines city-center to city-center access with frequent departures and predictable on-board facilities. Buses have longer door-to-door durations but may cost less; flights cut airborne time but require airport transfers and extra time for check-in. For routes linking Shanghai and inland Shanxi, rail often reduces total travel time when factoring transfers and station locations.
