The Pudong railway (simplified Chinese: 浦东铁路; traditional Chinese: 浦東鐵路; pinyin: Pǔdōng Tiělù) is a railway line operated by China Railway. Located entirely in Shanghai, China, the 42.87-kilometre-long (26.64 mi) railway line is used solely for freight services, although passenger services did operate along the line until 2015. At its western terminus, it branches off from the Jinshan railway at Jinshan Industrial Park in the city's Jinshan District and runs eastward to Luchaogang in Pudong, with three intermediate stations.[1]

Construction of the railway line was completed on 9 December 2005.[1] Passenger service on the line started on 1 September 2008, with trains travelling between Shanghai South and Luchaogang, with an intermediate stop at Haiwan. These trains would use the Jinshan railway between Shanghai South and Jinshan Industrial Park, before switching to the Pudong railway and travelling the entire length of the line.[2]

Passenger service on the line was suspended on 27 August 2015, due to the presence of a hazardous chemicals storage yard near Luchaogang station. This safety measure was taken in response to the 2015 Tianjin explosions.[3]

History

[edit]
  • It was the first suburban line in Shanghai.
  • The investment for the line was 1.951 billion yuan.

  • The passenger train was renamed K8351/8352, K8353/8354 times on 1 April 2009.
  • Passenger trains increased two-way stops at Haiwan Station on 15 September.
  • The number of individual passengers per train is roughly 50; about 200 people per day (4 trains) which led to a daily occupancy rate of only 35%.

There were eight China Railway 25Z passenger cars (body marked 25K) on the bottom of the double-decker passenger train, all of which are soft seats. The K8351/8352 and K8353/8354 trains use a set of bottoms, using 4 square Bombardier RZ25T plus a KD25G / KD25K generator car.[citation needed]
