The Hubei Xiangyang-Jingmen high-speed railway will start joint commissioning and joint testing on June 18, 2025, laying the foundation for the whole line to be ready for opening this year. After the completion and opening of the Xiangjing high-speed railway, it will only take about 30 minutes to take the high-speed rail from Xiangyang to Jingmen, and at the same time, it will help Hubei's first ring high-speed rail to "draw a circle".
At 10 a.m. on June 18, the first 55,163 inspection train was put into operation, departing from Xiangyang East Railway Station and heading to Jingmen West Railway Station to conduct comprehensive tests on track, catenary, communication and signal systems.
Xiangjing high-speed railway is located in the northwest of Hubei Province, the line starts from Xiangyang City, Hubei Province in the north, passes through Yicheng City, and reaches Jingmen City in the south, with a design speed of 350 kilometers per hour, and the total length of the main line is about 116.23 kilometers, with bridges and tunnels accounting for 84.7%. There are 3 passenger stations on the whole line, of which Xiangyang East Station and Jingmen West Station are existing stations, and Yicheng Station is a new station.
The construction of the Xiangjing high-speed railway started in September 2022, and the track-laying construction of the whole line was successfully completed in April 2025. After the railway department completes the static acceptance of the high-speed railway project and confirms that the conditions for joint debugging and joint test are met, the test train and related testing equipment are used to comprehensively detect, verify, adjust and optimize the function, performance, status and matching relationship between the systems of the high-speed railway at the specified test speed, so that the overall system can meet the design standards and meet the requirements of opening and operating at the design speed.
The Xiangjing high-speed railway, which connects the Zhengyu high-speed railway in the north and the Shanghai-Chongqing-Rong high-speed railway in the south, is an important part of the "Hunan Channel", one of the main corridors of China's "eight vertical and eight horizontal" high-speed railways. After the completion and opening of the Xiangjing high-speed railway, it is of great significance for Hubei to speed up the construction of the first ring high-speed railway and improve the layout of China's high-speed railway network.(This article is from the official website of Seetao www.seetao.com.
