Chongqing–Huaihua railway or Yuhuai railway, is a single-track, electrified railroad in southwest China between Chongqing Municipality and Huaihua in Hunan Province. The line is 624.5 km long and was built between 2000 and 2005. Cities and towns along route include Changshou, Fuling, Wulong, Pengshui, Qianjiang, Youyang Tujia and Miao Autonomous County, Xiushan, Songtao in Chongqing Municipality, Tongren in Guizhou Province and Huaihua in Hunan Province.
