The Anyi Express is Sichuan's comfort train - rooted in Chengdu, relaxed in pace, and built around the province's famous hospitality rather than a relentless sightseeing schedule.
The Anyi Express boards in Chengdu, with an all-day arrival service meeting your flight or train and taking your luggage before you step aboard. The routing keeps to the southwest's most comfortable corridors.
Cabins are arranged for relaxed, residential comfort, each with an en-suite bathroom and independent climate and light control. The tone is calm and unhurried - a train to settle into rather than sprint through.
The dining car is the heart of the Anyi experience, with Sichuan cuisine at its centre - fragrant broths, tea service and regional specialties - and premium drinks included. Dietary notes are confirmed at boarding.
Evenings bring a low-key cultural rhythm: tea, music and conversation in the lounge, with large windows onto the Sichuan and Yunnan countryside. The train carries Wi-Fi for the between-stop hauls.
Each car has its own attendant, and the operator provides clear pre-departure guidance. The ride is smooth and climate-controlled throughout.
