Xiamen is entering a new ear of bullet train travel following the launch of several high-speed railways, reports Xiamen Evening News.

Following Fuzhou-Xiamen High-speed Railway open to traffic on 26th April, 2010, Longyan-Xiamen Railway, which is composed of Longyan- Zhangzhou South section and Zhangzhou South-Xiamen section, is expected to be open to traffic on 30th June, 2012.

With a designed speed of 200km/h, the travel time from Xiamen to Longyan by train will be shortened to 50 minutes from the current 4 hours upon its completion. The railway will play a significant role in transportation in both the south and west of Fujian by that time.

Meanwhile, Xiamen-Shenzhen Railway, another important section of the coastal railway artery in China, is expected to be open to traffic by the end of this year or early next year.
