 In Shanghai:
Most of bullet types are operated at Hongqiao Railway Station. Next to Hongqiao Airport, it is convenient for those who catch the flights. Besides, Hongqiao Station is easily accessible by subway line 2, line 10 and line 17 as well as city buses.

A few of them use the Main Railway Station, which is closer to the city center and subway line 1, line 3 and line 4 have a stop there.

 In Xuzhou:
Most of them are operated at East Railway Station, an important transportation hub serving many major high speed railways. Although not that close to city center, transportation here is very convenient.
 
Only a few of them run to/from the Main Railway Station which is close to the city center.
 
Most of them just stop in Xuzhou for several minutes. So you'd better prepare everything beforehand and move quickly to get off or get on in time.

Passengers can take coaches travelling between the two cities. But it takes 7 hours, longer than a high speed rail travel. In consideration of the inconvenience of obtaining a coach ticket in advance too, you are not advised to take a coach.
