★Enter the railway station. There are X-ray machines at the gate of each railway station. All the luggage（行李）has to be passed through to examine for dangerous things. Once you put your luggage on the machine, please go to the other side and get it quickly in case that your luggage is taken either by mistake or on purpose.

★Find the right waiting room. After you enter the railway station, you should find the hall where your train is going to leave from. There are always electronic boards at the railway station with information shown in Chinese. You can find your waiting room according to the information given on your train ticket, or you can ask a member of staff（工作人員）for help if you are in trouble with Chinese.

★Get onto the platform（月臺(tái)）. In most cases, check-in starts 30 minutes before the train leaves if it is the starting station. So you are advised to arrive at the station one hour early.
