Bohai Train Ferry

Bohai Train Ferry (Chinese: 渤海铁路轮渡) is a train ferry service connecting Dalian, Liaoning and Yantai, Shandong in China over the Bohai Sea, which is the northern part of the Yellow Sea.

Some ideas of crossing the Yellow Sea from the Shandong Peninsula to the Liaodong Peninsula by means of other than the ships, such as the bridges or undersea tunnels, have been discussed in the history of China, particularly since the late 19th century when many people moved to Northeast China in the Chuang Guandong population move and the Beiyang Fleet was stationed in Weihaiwei, Shandong, and Lushun, Liaoning.

Bohai Train Ferry travels 99.8 nautical miles (184.8 km; 114.8 mi).

Currently, there are six daily services (Dalian-Yantai: 09:30-16:00, 16:30-23:00 and 23:20-06:20; Yantai-Dalian: 05:20-11:50, 14:10-20:40 and 22:00-04:30; as of August, 2009) by three vessels: the Sinorail Bohai No.

The ferry is in the northernmost part of the newly developed area on Yangtou Bay (Chinese: 羊头湾) of the Bohai Sea that includes World Peace Park, the new development zone and the universities (the Software and Information Engineering Departments of Dalian Jiaotong University and Dalian University of Foreign Economy and Trade (Chinese: 大连对外经贸学院)).
