Get off at Pingyao Ancient Town with a ticket to Taiyuan
We suppose this should not be a problem? I saw no ticket to Pingyao already but someone suggest us to buy tickets to Taiyuan but get off at Pingyao. Would you please confirm it would work? Thank you!

Thank you for your inquiry.
Yes, passengers can get off in advance at halfway. It is not a problem. However, please double check if the train you want to use will stop at Pingyao or not. Not all rides from Xi'an to Taiyuan have stop there. Hope for your advanced notice.

In China, train ticket price do not change by the time you buy the ticket. So no matter if you buy it in advance or on the travel day, it is the same. However, there is a possibility that the tickets sold out quickly. According to my research, the tickets to Pingyao directly is very popular so you may not able to get a ticket on the day. It would be better if you recheck the availability.
