Trains wait to leave for Beijing at Zhengzhou East Railway Station in Zhengzhou City, capital of central China's Henan Province, Nov. 25, 2012. The high-speed rail route from Beijing to the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou will open next month, cutting the 2,200-km journey time by 14 hours, according to the Ministry of Railways. A trial operation along the Beijing-Zhengzhou section, the last part of the route, began on Sunday morning. (Xinhua/Qing Zhu)
