>What’s the connectivity like between those two cities?To be exact, the two end points of the planned rail line will be Ya'an, Sichuan and Lhasa, Tibet. There is a road that connect the two cities together, which isn't particular great from transportation point of view, but that's still one of the few roads that connect Tibet to the out side word which was constructed after overcoming many engineering challenges, and because the road is rather scenic so there are also many tourists who spend a number of days to drive between the two cities. And of course, the route is also a key military supply route just like all other routes into Tibet that can reinforce China's military presence in the area and defense against local rebellion or foreign military action from countries like India.
