In News: Tibet’s first high-speed train service between provincial capital Lhasa and Nyingchi near the border with Arunachal Pradesh will be operational by the end of June, a top official from China railways said on Saturday.

High Speed Rail – China near Arunachal Border

  • A 435-km rail link to the regional capital of Lhasa will run Fuxing high-speed trains powered by both internal combustion and electricity.
  • Construction started in 2014 on the railway line connecting Lhasa with Nyingchi in eastern Tibet.
  •  It is the first electrified railroad in Tibet and is slated to begin operations in June 2021. 
  • The track-laying work was completed by the end of 2020.
  • The railway has a designed speed of 160 km per hour.
  • The Sichuan-Tibet Railway will be the second railway into Tibet after the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, which in 2006 connected Lhasa to the hinterland.
  • It will go through the southeast of the Qinghai-Tibet plateau, one of the world’s most geologically active areas.
  • China claims that the railway will help “transport advanced equipment and technologies from the rest of China to Tibet and bring local products out”.
