=== Rail ===
Guizhou's rail network consists primarily of a cross formed by the [[Sichuan–Guizhou railway|Sichuan–Guizhou]], [[Guizhou–Guangxi Railway|Guangxi–Guizhou]] and [[Shanghai–Kunming railway|Shanghai–Kunming]] railways, which intersect at the provincial capital, [[Guiyang]], near the center of the province. The [[Liupanshui–Baiguo railway|Liupanshui–Baiguo]], [[Pan County West Railway|Pan County West]] and [[Weishe–Hongguo railway|Weishe–Hongguo]] railways form a rail corridor along Guizhou's western border with [[Yunnan]]. This corridor connects the [[Neijiang–Kunming railway]], which dips into northwestern Guizhou at [[Weining Yi, Hui, and Miao Autonomous County|Weining]], with the [[Nanning–Kunming railway]], which skirts the southwestern corner of Guizhou at [[Xingyi City|Xingyi]].{{citation needed|date=February 2016}}

As of 2018, [[Shanghai–Kunming high-speed railway|Shanghai–Kunming]] and [[Guiyang–Guangzhou high-speed railway|Guiyang–Guangzhou]] high-speed railways are operational. [[Chengdu–Guiyang high-speed railway]] is under construction.
