Longhai Line

The Longhai Line between Baoji and Tianshui offers a number of incredible sights. While the original line crept along the hillsides, it was upgraded several times, and only rather short stretches of the original line are still used. Instead, a large number of long bridges were built to replace it, one of which you can see here.

 

Despite the efforts to upgrade the old line, a completely new high-speed line is being built nearby, going straight through the mountains!

 

The train is headed towards Tianshui and is hauled by a HXD1.1 locomotive.
