Traveling from Tianzhong to New Taipei, passengers have the option to take the Taiwan Railway Administration (TRA) trains, specifically the Local and Express services. The Express service is the quicker of the two, reaching speeds of up to 120 km/h (75 mph) and covering the journey in approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. The Local service, while more frequent, takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes due to more stops along the route.
Both services offer standard seating arrangements and basic amenities. The Express trains provide a slightly faster and more efficient travel experience, making them preferable for those who might be on a tight schedule. However, the Local trains serve a wider range of stations, providing access to more smaller towns along the route, accommodating travelers who may be interested in exploring beyond the main city.
