The Chuxiong-Dali railway, part of the Kunming-Dali railway, is expected to open to traffic in July. By then, Kunming will operate EMU trains to Dali, cutting the inter-city travel time to 2 hours from the current 6 hours.

In addition to Kunming, cities in Guangxi will also operate bullet trains to Dali. According to the China Railway Nanning Group, Dali will be linked to Guangxi cities by high-speed trains from July 1 on. Nanning, Liuzhou, Guilin, and Beihai will all run direct EMU trains to Dali.

China has just issued an adjustment plan on its national train working diagram, in an effort to bring about faster and cheaper train trips. Ticket of some high-speed trains will be discounted by as much as 35 percent.
