Beijing–Shenyang high-speed railway is a {{convert|700|km|adj=on|sp=us}}-long high-speed rail line of the China Railway High-speed between Beijing and Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning province. It is a section of the Beijing–Harbin high-speed railway.

The line was intended to relieve a significant bottleneck in China's transportation network between the Northeast region and Beijing. The route runs to the north and inland of the existing routes which hug the coast around the Bohai sea. The new line leaves Beijing heading northeast to Chengde in Hebei province then turns east through Chaoyang, and Fuxin in Liaoning province, on route to Shenyang. There are 16 stations, which were the last section of the Beijing–Harbin high-speed railway to be completed; the other sections of that line had been operational since December 1, 2012.

The line has a maximum design speed of {{convert|350|km/h|abbr=on}}{{cite web|title=Beijing-Shenyang high-speed rail to break ground by year's end |url=http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/90001/90776/90882/6924955.html|publisher=People Daily|access-date=24 August 2013|date=19 March 2010}} though regular services operate at around {{convert|250|to|300|km/h|abbr=on}}. Travel time between Shenyang and Beijing was cut from 4 hours to just 2 hours and 17 minutes.{{cite web|title=Beijing to Shenyang High-speed Rail Starts Construction This Year|url=http://news.echinacities.com/detail/27972-Beijing-to-Shenyang-High-speed-Rail-Starts-Construction-This-Year-|publisher=Echinacities|access-date=24 August 2013|date=24 January 2011}}

Construction was supposed to have started in 2010 with the project to be completed by 2012, but was delayed until March 2014.{{cite web|date=8 August 2013|title=Beijing to Shenyang in 2 hours|url=http://africa.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2013-08/02/content_16866467.htm|access-date=24 August 2013|publisher=China Daily}}{{cite news|date=2014-05-07|script-title=zh:北京至沈阳铁路客运专线开建|publisher=高铁网|url=http://crh.gaotie.cn/jingshen/2014-05-07/157855.html|access-date=2014-05-08}}

Protests by residents along the planned route caused several safety reviews to examine the potential noise pollution and electro-magnetic radiation.{{cite web|last=Tao|first=Anthony|date=10 December 2012|title=Beijingers Protest Proposed High-Speed Rail Line|url=http://beijingcream.com/2012/12/beijingers-protest-proposed-high-speed-rail-line/|access-date=24 August 2013|publisher=Beijing Cream}}{{cite news|last=Blanchard|first=Ben|date=2012-12-09|title=Rare Beijing protest takes aim at high speed rail project|work=Reuters|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/china-protest-idUSL4N09J0B120121209|access-date=2012-12-09|archive-date=2014-07-14|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714223252/http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/12/09/china-protest-idUSL4N09J0B120121209|url-status=live}} The first two reviews suggested installing noise shielding along sensitive parts of the line. The third review called for noise shielding, in addition to above ground tunnels, to completely enclose the line while near urban areas.{{Citation needed|date=October 2020}} In addition, the starting point has been relocated to Beijing Chaoyang railway station (formerly known as Xinghuo railway station) in Chaoyang District of Beijing.

In August 2013, the Beijing municipal government published a notice calling for bids to build the line until its status is completed and operational. The total investment was expected to be 124.5 billion yuan.{{cite web|date=6 February 2009|title=Work starts on Beijing-Shenyang high speed railway|url=http://www.china.org.cn/travel/news/2009-02/06/content_17235089.htm|access-date=24 August 2013|publisher=Shanghai Daily}}{{Cite web|title=High-speed railway to link Beijing, Shenyang{{!}}Society{{!}}chinadaily.com.cn|url=http://usa.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2013-12/30/content_17205381.htm|access-date=2016-04-12|website=usa.chinadaily.com.cn}}

The Shenyang to Chengde South section opened on December 29, 2018. The remaining section between Chengde South and Beijing Chaoyang opened on January 22, 2021.{{cite web|url=http://liaoning.nen.com.cn/system/2021/01/21/021086377.shtml|title=京沈高铁1月22日全线开通|date=2021-01-21|access-date=2021-01-21|archive-date=2021-01-29|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210129074656/http://liaoning.nen.com.cn/system/2021/01/21/021086377.shtml|url-status=dead}}

On June 25, 2021, G902/903, G907/908 and G915/916 trains were extended to the Beijing railway station, thus the Beijing-Shenyang high-speed railway has charted trains arriving and departing at the Beijing railway station.{{cite news|url=https://www.chinanews.com/cj/2021/06-11/9497823.shtml|title=京哈高铁首次迎来复兴号智能型动车组 列车增至34列|date=2021-06-11|accessdate=2021-06-17|quote=京哈高铁哈尔滨西站始发的G902次高速动车组列车将首次图定停靠北京站}}
