High-speed trains on the Shanghai to Qichunnan route run via Nanjing South and Hefei South along the Shanghai–Nanjing–Hefei–Wuhan corridor. The fastest G‑series Fuxing services operate at 250–300 km/h (155–186 mph) and take about 4 hours 15 minutes to 5 hours with limited stops. D‑series Hexie trains run at 200–250 km/h (124–155 mph) and usually take 5.5 to 7 hours due to more intermediate calls; some departures are direct while others require a same‑station transfer at Hefei South or Nanjing South. Onboard, G‑series offer Second, First, and Business Class seating, while D‑series provide Second and First Class. Both feature air‑conditioned coaches, power sockets, tray tables, restrooms, and trolley or dining‑car service. If speed is the priority, pick a G‑series train; D‑series services suit travelers targeting additional regional stops; note that conventional K/T/Z trains run from Shanghai (main) to Qichun at up to 120–160 km/h (75–99 mph), take roughly 10–14 hours, and arrive at a different station from Qichun South (Qichunnan).
