YINCHUAN -- Northwest China's Ningxia Hui autonomous region will open its first high-speed railway on Dec 29, according to local state-owned capital operation group.
The railway will mark the opening of high-speed train services in all Chinese mainland provincial-level regions except for Tibet autonomous region.
The 212-km-long railway links three cities in the region including Yinchuan, the capital of Ningxia, Wuzhong and Zhongwei with a maximum design speed of 250 kph.
