Fast forward new high-speed rail

The Beijing-Shanghai High-speed Rail is not just a proud showcase of Chinese civil engineering, it will also break physical barriers between north and south by bringing the two cities a lot closer, much faster. China Daily spotlights the hopes, aspirations and expectations of the people and cities along the 1,318-km track, which will blaze open a corridor of opportunities along the Chinese coast.

The excitement mounts as the first trains whizz past, and it's not just in Shanghai or Beijing where tickets had been snapped up as fast as the counters could process sales. From all 24 stations along the Beijing-Shanghai High-speed Railway, eddies of anticipation are washing through the coastal passage opened up by the route. The ripple effect will probably be felt the most in Shandong province, which is welcoming the new rail trail with more than open arms. It is expecting the trains to bring both investment and interest to its six major cities along the route. In Qufu, officials are girding their loins for a fresh wave of interest in a venerable philosopher's famous hometown. From Beijing, Confucius' home, his temple and the Kong family mausoleum will now only be a day-trip away, and the city is meeting the expected surge in visitor numbers with a brand-new one-stop hub for tourists.

Jinan, the Shandong capital, has already got a grand twin-towered commercial complex planned around its train station in anticipation of increased traffic.

Furthest down the Shandong section of the line, Zaozhuang is hoping that the rail will revive awareness of its history and products, currently coal and pomegranates. It is a little ancient city dating back to the Spring and Autumn Period more than 2,700 years ago, and was home to Mozi, another famous Chinese thinker who lived during the time of the Warring States (476-221BC).

Besides the convenience of travel, the trains will also help better integrate the coastal trading and manufacturing centers with the business hubs. In the north, they offer Beijing a quick second route to Tianjin port, and will probably help raise property prices in the relaxed Hebei suburb of Langfang, now only 15 munites away from the crowded Chinese capital.

Zooming through Shandong, businesses based in Beijing will now find it easier and quicker to connect with manufacturing centers in Jiangsu, including Nanjing and Zhenjiang. Of course, the same applies for those working out of Shanghai.

If you do an online search on Bengbu, the results in English may not tell you much about this Anhui city. But remember the name. It is second only to the capital Hefei as one of Anhui province's important centers for research and development and it once enjoyed prominence in the early days of rail travel.

Its fortunes had dipped somewhat as highways replaced trains during the hectic progress of 30 years of reform post-1980s, but now Bengbu is reviving like parched grass after rain, as high-speed train travel shifts the focus to the city once more.

The High-speed Rail is not just changing the cities along its path, but it also has an economic ripple effect on the people, especially those who had to travel far to earn a living previously.

Now, some migrant workers are returning home, like Ding-yuan villager Liu Xiaodong who found work as a security guard along the railway track. Now he can be with his family and see his children every day, a rare luxury in the days when he had to labor in Shanghai.

Fresh job opportunities will also come as visitors and investments explore the cities along the route, now so much more accessible and in much quicker time. The landscape will change, and it will be more than physical.
