China, interested in building Hunchun-Vladivostok HSR

Hunchun-Vladivostok_BMW7B9_673The government of the Chinese province of Jilin has proposed to construct a high-speed railway between Hunchun (on the China-Russia border) and Vladivostok, Interfax informs. “We have an idea to build a high-speed railway to Vladivostok,” Chaolu said. “By August, we will already launch a segment to Hunchun. If we manage to extend it together, it will be the first cross-border high-speed backbone between Russia and China.” Earlier it was reported China’s Heilongjiang Province proposed to the Far Eastern Railway (a branch of Russian Railways) to launch a passenger service between Harbin and Vladivostok.
