Taipei Trains
The new Taiwan High Speed Rail link (tel: (02) 6626 8000; website: www.thsrc.com.tw) runs north-south from Taipei to Kaoshiung. The link has made it possible to travel in comfort from one end of Taiwan to the other in less than three hours at speeds of up to 300kph (186mph). There are eight stops with four expecting completion by 2010. Electrified train services run along the west coast and diesel trains along the east coast. Services are slow, but frequent, and less expensive than flying (tel: (02) 2381 5226; website: www.railway.gov.tw). The main city station is Taipei railway station, 3 Beiping W. Road, Jhongjheng District.
