The electrification renovation of the Golmud Lhasa section of the Qinghai Tibet Railway will start in November 2026 and is expected to be put into operation in 2029. At that time, the Fuxing Express will directly reach Lhasa, and the travel time from Xining to Lhasa will be reduced to about 14 hours. The external power engineering supporting the project will start construction first, ending the internal combustion traction mode that has been used for 20 years and achieving the localization of power equipment for high-altitude railways.
