All high-speed G-series trains on the Shanghai to Taian route offer a choice of Second, First, and Business Class seating (Standard, Premium, and Executive), providing tiered comfort levels for different budgets. The fastest service, the Fuxing G-series (CR400AF/BF), runs at up to 350 km/h (217 mph) and completes the journey in about 3 hours 45 minutes to 4 hours with limited stops, primarily along the Beijing–Shanghai High-Speed Railway. In comparison, G-series Hexie sets (CRH380) typically operate at 300–310 km/h (186–193 mph) and take around 4 hours 10 minutes to 4 hours 40 minutes, calling at key stations such as Nanjing South, Xuzhou East, and Jinan West before arriving at Tai'an. Both services provide onboard amenities, including reserved seating, power outlets, restrooms, and trolley or café service, with the Fuxing being the quicker option and the Hexie offering broader access to intermediate cities. For a more premium experience, Business Class provides wider seats with deep recline or near lie-flat capability on many trains.
