Beijing's new rail and subway lines
Posted by: Sean O'Neill, Friday, Jul 18, 2008, 12:26 PM

Beijing's pair of new subway lines and its new airport-to-downtown rail line are expected to open Sunday.

The design of the rail lines will be similar to one that opened last year and is shown in this one-minute video.

The Olympics start within a few weeks. For full coverage, visit budgettravel.com/beijing2008.
