释义 |
The Taiyuan–Zhongwei–Yichuan railway ({{zh|s=太中银铁路|Tài-Zhōng-Yín Tiělù}}) is a railway line in northern China, connecting Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi Province, with Zhongwei and Yinchuan in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. It is a double-track electric railway, opened in 2011. RoutingThe main line of the railway runs in the general east-west direction from Taiyuan to Zhongwei via Lüliang and Dingbian, serving a number of communities in western Shanxi, northern Shaanxi and Ningxia, many of which previously did not have rail service at all. The Dingbian-Yinchuan branch runs from Dingbian northwest, to Ningxia's capital city Yinchuan. The railway also has a short dead-end branch from Lüliang to Lin County (Linxian) in the northwestern Shanxi. In some areas (a section of the main line east of Dingbian, and the Dingbian-Yinchuan branch), the railway route roughly parallels the Great Wall of China. ServiceTogether with the Shijiazhuang–Taiyuan high-speed railway, the Taiyuan–Zhongwei–Yichuan railway provides a more direct route between Beijing and Ningxia than those that were available before. Together with the Zhongwei-Wuwei line in Ningxia and Gansu, it offers a shorter route between Beijing and Xinjiang than the more standard route via Zhengzhou and Lanzhou.[1] HistoryConstruction started in May 2006. The railway was opened on January 11, 2011. It includes the 20-km long Lüliangshan Tunnel near Lüliang City in western Shanxi. Rail junctions
