      History


      In 2013, the State Council of China broke up the Ministry of Railways and separated the functions of railway operation and regulation. The China Railway Corporation was created to operate the railway network, while the National Railway Administration was created to regulate and oversee the corporation, with safety and accident prevention being a major part of its function.


      Functions


      The NRA oversees the largest railway network in Asia and the largest high-speed railway network in the world. The densities of the network's passenger and freight transport are among the world's highest. It has seven regional oversight bureaus, based in Shenyang, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Wuhan, Xi'an, and Lanzhou, respectively, which oversee 18 regional railway companies (formerly regional bureaus) of the China Railway Corporation.
