The Qingdao–Jinan passenger railway, or Jiaoji passenger railway (simplified Chinese: 胶济客运专线; traditional Chinese: 膠濟客運專線; pinyin: Jiāo-Jǐ Kèyùn Zhuān Xiàn), is a high-speed railway operated by China Railway Jinan Group in Shandong province, running from Jinan to Qingdao at 250 km/h (160 mph) following the Qingdao–Jinan Railway. "Jiāo" in its short name is a reference to the Jiaozhou Bay region, where Qingdao is located; "Jǐ" refers to Jinan. The line opened in 2008, with the goal to further separate passenger and freight services on the congested Qingdao–Jinan Railway and provide extra capacity.
Connecting at Jinan with the Beijing–Shanghai high-speed railway, the Qingdao–Jinan line offers direct high-speed (G- and D-series) train service from Qingdao to both Beijing South and Shanghai.
