htmlOn June 20, the railway train operation chart was adjusted. There are many highlights of this adjustment. I have already written it one after another in the previous articles, and I will not repeat it this time.
This time I will talk about the CR400 Fuxing intelligent EMU G71/72 from Beijing to Kunming.

This time, the number of trains in the provincial capital's EMU entering Beijing was adjusted. The benchmark cars with few stops and short time were basically small sections, that is, between G1-G99. As the capital of Yunnan Province, Kunming also has such a pair of cars, G71/72.

With this adjustment of the map, Kunming will also welcome the CR400 Fuxing intelligent EMU for the first time. Compared with the standard version of the Fuxing EMU , the smart EMU has added intelligent functions in train operation, passenger service, safety monitoring, etc., with more complete facilities and more humanized services.
From Beijing West Railway Station to Kunming South Railway Station , it starts at 7:05 and ends at Kunming South Railway Station at 17:29. The stations stop along the way include Shijiazhuang, Zhengzhou East, Wuhan, Changsha South, Huaihua South and Guiyang North, which took 10 hours and 24 minutes.

G72 times, starting from Kunming South Station at 9:15, and ending at Beijing West Station at 19:35. The station stops in the middle is the same as G71, and the whole journey takes 10 hours and 20 minutes, which is 4 minutes less than G71 times.
G71/72nd railway is the Beijing-Guangzhou High-speed Railway and the Shanghai-Kunming High-speed Railway, with a total distance of 2,760 kilometers. This operating mileage is also the longest running EMU in China.

The running distance is long, and the most technological CR400 Fuxing intelligent EMU is running. What is the fare? The ticket price for this pair of EMUs is 1,250 yuan for the second class seat, 2,042 yuan for the first class seat, and 3,940.5 yuan for the business seat. Whether it is first class seat or second class seat, it is relatively high in China. Of course, business seat is even higher, and it is only 60 yuan away, which is more than 4,000 yuan. The price of this business seat is catching up with the business class
, which is more than the full price economy class.
I checked it. There were 7 flights on the same day. The lowest price for economy class starts from 520 yuan, but the discounted business class is within 3,500 yuan. The business seats of the Fuxing intelligent EMU are naturally mainly for business people, etc. This little money is nothing to them, so there is no difference between high-speed rail and aviation.
Some flight conditions
However, in terms of time, high-speed trains have no advantage. Whether it is taking off from Daxing Airport or Capital Airport, the time is within 4 hours. If you include the time from front to back to airport, 7 hours should be solved.
doesn't seem to have any advantages. Strangely, this business seat from Beijing is not without people. There is no one left in the business seat on June 21, 24 and 26, with only the word "suspended"; there is only one left in the 22nd and 23rd as of 19 pm on the 20th, and some are sold in the next few days.

Business seats returning to Beijing from Kunming are a little colder and not many are sold.
I am really curious. Who are riding these business seats?
