The Tianjin-Daxing Intercity Railway started operations on December 18, linking Tianjin to Beijing Daxing International Airport and reducing the travel time from Tianjinxi Railway Station to Daxing International Airport to a minimum time of 41 minutes.

The railway, stretching 101 kilometers, starts from Tianjinxi Railway Station, passes through Hongqiao District of Tianjin Municipality, Langfang City of Hebei Province, and reaches Daxing International Airport Station in Daxing District of Beijing Municipality. The newly constructed section covers 47 kilometers between Shengfang Railway Station and Gu'andong Railway Station, with a design speed of 250 kilometers per hour. The route encompasses six stations: Tianjinxi Railway Station, Shengfang Railway Station, the newly finished Anci Railway Station and Yongqingdong Railway Station, Gu'andong Railway Station, and Daxing International Airport Station.

Operating at a maximum speed of 250 kilometers per hour, the Tianjin-Daxing Intercity Railway initially offers eight daily train services. The fastest trips from Tianjinxi Railway Station to Anci Railway Station, Yongqingdong Railway Station, and Daxing International Airport Station take 24, 29 and 41 minutes respectively. Additionally, four cross-line CRH trains have been scheduled, providing convenient access to Xiong'an Railway Station for passengers from Tianjinxi Railway Station and Tangshan Railway Station for the first time. Following the adjustment of the train schedule in the first quarter of 2024, the railway authorities plan to arrange a maximum of 18 high-speed trains per day and will further optimize the schedule based on passengers' demand.
