Practical Information for CRH/CR400 Travelers

Luggage Guidelines on CRH/CR400 and D-series trains. Below are key points about carry-on items, large baggage and special items for travel between Shanghai and Yanping:

Luggage Allowance

Passengers may bring typical carry-on items and suitcases. Large items should not exceed a combined dimension of 250 cm (length + width + height) and individual pieces are subject to weight and size checks at station gates. Check specific operator rules for oversized items.

Storage Facilities

High-speed trains have overhead racks for small bags and luggage areas at the end of each coach for larger suitcases. Items should be kept marked and within designated storage zones to avoid obstructing aisles.

Special Items

For bicycles, musical instruments or sports equipment, verify carriage rules in advance. Space for bulky items is limited and may require early boarding or separate handling arrangements at the station.
