Huizhou–Dayawan railway
The Huizhou Port railway is a single-track freight-only railway line located in Huizhou, Guangdong, China.
History
The railway was opened as far as Dayawan station in January 2004. Work to extend the railway had already started in December 2003.[1]
Route
The line leaves the Beijing–Kowloon railway west of Huizhou West railway station in Huicheng District and heads south, through Huiyang District, to Dayawan station. The line then splits into multiple branches which terminate at the coast.
Future
There are proposals to electrify then line, add a second track, and operate passenger services.[2]
