I need to take another train (MRT) to Tanggu from Tianjin station. Maybe next time I should inquire for a direct train from Beijing South to Tanggu. Wan

Dear Wan,

There are direct high speed trains from Beijing South Railway Station to Tanggu, Tianjin. I went to Beijing with my parents for a visit. Afterwards, we took high speed trains from Beijing South to Tanggu. It takes about 55 minutes. The ticket fare is CNY 66 for second class and CNY 80 for first class.

Did you use light rail from Tianjin Railway Station to Tanggu? When I was there, the light rail didn't connect Tianjin Railway Station yet.

I said about because, going to Beijing from Tianjin it took me 30 minutes, but coming back the train was slowing down due to snow and the railway tracks were slippery. Wan

Let those who work outside for a whole year can get back home quickly to unite with their families. Seriously, the light rail in Tianjin isn't fast. It takes longer time from Binhai District to Tianjin Railway Station.

Elevator? I went to Binhai New District once. I used the light rail to get on and off at Citizen Plaza (Shi Min Guang Chang) two times. And I didn't use the elevator.

Wan, it is a common problem. Usually, the elevator is divided into two sides. There should be a sign "Stand to the right". If you stand to the right, there will be a space on your left so that those who have emergencies can step quickly out of the station. But most people don't do as the sign says.
