Practical Information for CRH Travelers

Luggage Guidelines for CRH Trains. CRH services allow passengers to bring standard carry-on and larger checked items subject to station and operator rules. Below are key points to know when travelling on high-speed trains in China:

Luggage Allowance

Passengers may bring multiple items of luggage; large items must be manageable by the passenger and fit in racks or carriage storage areas. Ensure combined dimensions comply with station guidelines to avoid collection requirements.

Storage Facilities

CRH trains provide overhead racks above seats and luggage areas at the end of each carriage for suitcases. Larger items are commonly stored in the carriage-end racks; keep valuables with you at your seat.

Special Items

For bicycles, large sports equipment or musical instruments check local operator rules in advance. Space for special items is subject to availability and platform staff can advise on collection or alternative handling.

High-speed rail on CRH trains offers city-center to city-center connections and predictable schedules, reducing overall travel time compared with long-distance buses. Buses are cheaper but require longer travel durations and fewer onboard amenities. Flights have shorter airborne times but add airport transfers and check-in time; for many travelers the CRH high-speed option balances total journey time and station accessibility between Shanghai and Longyan.

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