According to the report, the Wuhan-Guangzhou Passenger Special Line with the longest mileage and the highest mileage in operation in the world will be opened to traffic by the end of 2009. The railway running time from Wuhan to Guangzhou will be shortened from the current 10.5 hours to about 3 hours and become China Railway Another milestone in the history of development.
