The trans-shipment of break-bulk truck cargo and other related business are also incorporated into Pingyan Railway’s services.

The Pingyan Railway line, owned and operated by Shenzhen Pingyan Railway Company Limited, runs 24 km and connects with the Guangshen Railway at Pinghunan Railway Station where it joins the main arteries of China.
