Starting April 11, the national railway will implement its second-quarter train timetable. Following the adjustment, Hangzhou railway stations plan to operate 489 pairs of passenger trains, including seven pairs on weekends and 32 pairs during peak hours.

Notably, an additional pair of high-speed trains will be added based on the Jan 10 timetable for this year, which includes one pair of trains commuting between Shanghai and Hangzhou, namely G7302 from Hangzhou East to Shanghai Hongqiao and G7309 from Shanghai Hongqiao to Hangzhou East.

The G7302 train departs from Hangzhou East at 6:47 am, stopping at Jiashan South Station and Songjiang South Station before arriving at Shanghai Hongqiao Station at 7:47 am.

The G7309 train departs from Shanghai Hongqiao at 9:52 pm, stopping at Jiashan South Station and Jiashan South Station before arriving at Hangzhou East at 10:51 pm.

The railway department reminds passengers that tickets go on sale 14 days in advance, and information about changes in passenger train operations and services after the implementation of the new timetable can be checked on the official 12306 website and app. Hangzhou has multiple railway stations, so passengers are advised to confirm their departure station and allocate sufficient time for local transportation.
