The Sichuan-Qinghai railway will eventually stretch northwestward to Xining, Qinghai Province with a designed speed of 200 kilometers per hour. Upon completion of the whole project, the new rail line will connect the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, the highest plateau in the world, to the massive high-speed transport network of China, which will put the region's development on fast track.
