Nanning–Pingxiang high-speed railway is a high-speed railway between Nanning and Pingxiang in Guangxi, China. Rather than being a central government initiative, this project is largely being coordinated at a regional level, in Guangxi.[2] [3]

Erection of the overhead wires for the Nanning to Chongzuo section began in December 2020.[6]
The Nanning to Chongzuo section was opened on 5 December 2022.[7]
Between Fusui South and Pingxiang East, the line runs roughly parallel to the Hunan–Guangxi railway.

It would connect to railways in northern Vietnam, and this line is seen as the first stage of a high-speed network reaching as far as Singapore.[8] [9] Cross-border traffic will connect to the proposed North-South Express Railway.[10]
