The 1950s era "Green Trains" or green skinned / leather trains 绿皮车 lǜpíchē, are dying out, in April 2020 it was reported there were as few as 80 left, so join me and Elliot as we travel for the shortest and cheapest journey we could find of only 9 rmb and 8 minutes from Shanghai south railway station to Songjiang and then take the metro back again (for 50 minutes).
A "K" Kuàisù 快速 train by definition is "A service stopping at prefectural and higher-level cities. Maximum speed 120 km/h (75 mph). K1–K6998 for cross-bureau service; K7001–K9998 for service within one railway bureau.
