Work on the 846-km-long section between Xining and Golmud was completed in 1984. The State Council approved the project of the Golmud-Lhasa section last February. The Railway Ministry has set up a leading group and organized over 1,000 designers for consultations. A leading group for examining maps of the Qinghai-Tibet railway construction was set up recently. Construction of a 50-km-long section from Golmud to Naij Tal is soon to begin.
