Abstract In China, the length of high-speed railway (HSR) line has sustained growth since 2007. There is more than 16,000 km HSR in operation and another 10,000 km under construction. According to the national strategy “Mid- and Long-Term Railway Network Plan,” a national HSR network has appeared which was composed of “four north–south and four west–east” HSR corridors. The high-speed trains can reach more and more cities; mid–long-distance high-speed trains will be a new option for passengers. On the basis of a passenger transportation market survey, this article analyzes the passenger’s transportation demands, identifies the market positioning of HSR for mid–long-distance service, and investigates the reasonable operation distance of high-speed trains which is suitable for Chinese situations. The results can serve as a reference for the operation plan of mid–long-distance high-speed trains; it also gives full play to HSR transportation advantages, meets the social demands, and improves transport efficiency and benefit.
