The line, also known as the Ganshao railway, is named after its two terminal cities Ganzhou and Shaoguan, and has a total length of 179 km (111 mi).[1] Construction began in August 2009 and the line entered operation on September 30, 2014.[1] Major cities and towns along route include Ganzhou, Nankang, and Dayu County in Jiangxi and Nanxiong, Shixing and Shaoguan in Guangdong.
