Notes:
1. The first class seats for this trip are usually in great demand. If you plan to reserve one, reserve it as early as possible once your travel plan is set.
2. As there are only 4 departures per day for both directions, standing tickets will be issued when all classes of tickets mentioned above are sold out. The ticket fare for a standing ticket is the same with that of a second class seat. Passengers holding the standing ticket need to stand along the aisle or at the connection of two carriages on the way.
 Since the Yangshuo to Nanning trains as well as Nanning to Yangshuo trains are less, the schedule may not fit the travel time of some passengers. Or, sometimes, the tickets are sold out. In these cases, they could transfer in nearby cities, such as Guilin; and both Guilin Station and Guilin North Station can be used. If your travel time is not tight, you can even leave some time for sightseeing in that city.
 From Nanning, two departures are available at 10:10 and 16:20 from Langdong Long-distance Bus Station; from Yangshuo, one departure is at 10:00 from South Long-distance Bus Station. Duration is about 5 - 6 hours and ticket fare is CNY 120 - 140.Major Rail Lines from Nanning to:
