High-speed trains on the Shanghai to Yichun route in China are primarily G-series Fuxing services running from Shanghai Hongqiao to Yichun (Jiangxi), offering Second Class, First Class, and Business Class seating. These trains use the Shanghai–Kunming High-Speed Railway and usually pass key hubs such as Hangzhou East and Nanchang West.
The fastest G-series services operate at 300–350 km/h (186–217 mph) and cover the trip in about 3 hours 10 minutes to 3 hours 40 minutes, with limited stops along the way. In comparison, D-series Hexie trains run at 200–250 km/h (124–155 mph), make more intermediate stops, and typically take around 4.5 to 6 hours, sometimes using short sections of the conventional line.
Both options provide reserved seating, air-conditioned coaches, power outlets, and trolley service; G-series Business Class adds wider seats with near lie-flat recline, while D-series generally offers Second and First Class only. Choose the G-series for the quickest arrival, or D-series for broader station coverage and more fare choices.
