Operations
![](../I/m/G1936_info_board_in_201701.jpg)
The G360/361 and G362/359 trains offer faster services with only three intermediate stops (Zhengzhou East, Xuzhou East and Nanjing South), and are called as "benchmark trains" (Chinese: 标杆车). Other trains are services with more stops and longer travelling time.
According to the train numbering rules of China Railway, odd numbers are for south or west bound trains and even numbers are for north or east bound trains. The trains from Shanghai to Xi'an travel northbound on Beijing–Shanghai HSR and westbound on Xuzhou–Lanzhou HSR, and the trains from Xi'an to Shanghai travel eastbound on Xuzhou–Lanzhou HSR and southbound on Beijing–Shanghai HSR. Therefore, all the train services on this route have 2 train numbers for the same service.
