The '''Coastal corridor''' is a high-speed rail corridor running along the eastern coast of China, stretching from [[Dalian]] in the north to [[Fangchenggang]] in the south and passing through the cities of [[Shenyang]], [[Qinhuangdao]], [[Tianjin]], [[Dongying]], [[Weifang]], [[Qingdao]], [[Lianyungang]], [[Yancheng]], [[Nantong]], [[Shanghai]], [[Ningbo]]. [[Fuzhou]], [[Xiamen]], [[Shenzhen]], and [[Zhanjiang]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.gov.cn/gzdt/2013-12/09/content_2545066.htm|title=李学勇考察连盐铁路要求加快推进苏北铁路网建设|website=www.gov.cn|access-date=2019-07-05}}</ref> The Weifang–Qingdao stretch splits into two, one directly connecting Weifang to Qingdao, the other connecting Weifang to Qingdao through Yantai. Announced in 2016 as part of China's [[List of high-speed railway lines in China#"Eight Vertical and Eight Horizontal" network|"Eight Vertical and Eight Horizontal" network]] as an expanded [[Hangzhou–Fuzhou–Shenzhen passenger railway]] from the "four vertical and four horizontal" plan.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://finance.qq.com/a/20160907/010955.htm|title=铁老大"八纵八横"来了高铁或将终结短途时代？}}</ref> The line will comprise a mixture of high-speed railway lines, upgraded conventional rail lines and intercity railways.

The '''Beijing–Harbin, Beijing–Hong Kong (Macau) corridor''' is a high-speed rail passage connecting [[Harbin]] in [[Heilongjiang]] province to the [[Hong Kong]] and [[Macau|Macau Special Administrative Regions]] via [[Beijing]]. The passage will pass through the cities of [[Changchun]], [[Shenyang]], [[Beijing]], [[Shijiazhuang]], [[Zhengzhou]], [[Wuhan]], [[Changsha]], and [[Guangzhou]] before splitting into two lines: one passing through [[Shenzhen]] before terminating at Hong Kong, the other passing through [[Zhuhai]] before terminating at [[Macau]].

Announced in 2016 as part of China's [[List of high-speed railway lines in China#"Eight Vertical and Eight Horizontal" network|"Eight Vertical and Eight Horizontal" network]], the passage is essentially a merger of two lines previously under the "Four Vertical and Four Horizontal" high-speed railway network: the [[Beijing–Harbin high-speed railway]] and the [[Beijing–Guangzhou–Shenzhen–Hong Kong high-speed railway]], with the addition of the Guangzhou–Macau branch line. The [[Harbin–Dalian high-speed railway|Shenyang–Dalian]] railway section, initially considered part of the [[Beijing–Harbin high-speed railway]], now forms part of the [[Coastal corridor]], a different rail corridor.

The '''Beijing–Hong Kong (Taipei) corridor''' is a proposed [[High-speed rail in China|high-speed railway corridor in Greater China]]. It will run in a north–south direction from [[Beijing]] to [[Hong Kong]], with a branch leading from [[Hefei]] to end at [[Taipei]] across the [[Taiwan Strait]]. It will connect the cities of [[Beijing]], [[Xiong'an]], [[Fuyang]], [[Hefei]], [[Jiujiang]], [[Nanchang]], [[Ganzhou]], [[Shenzhen]] and [[Hong Kong]] on the main line, as well as [[Fuzhou]] and [[Taipei]], [[Taiwan]] on the branch line.

The line was announced by the Chinese government in 2016 as part of China's [[List of high-speed railway lines in China#"Eight Vertical and Eight Horizontal" network|"Eight Vertical and Eight Horizontal" network]]. Currently, high-speed services from Beijing to Hong Kong travel via the [[Beijing–Guangzhou high-speed railway]]. This corridor will create a more direct route.
