The line is long and follows the south bank of the Yangtze River from Wuchang District in Wuhan to Lushan Station in Jiujiang. Major cities and towns along route include Wuhan, Huarong, Huanggang, Ezhou, Huangshi, Daye Yangxin, Ruichang and Jiujiang. History Ezhou railway station The Wuhan–Jiujiang railway was created from the merger of the Wuhan–Daye and Daye–Shahejie railways in December 1989.(Chinese) "第二节 铁路运输单位" 武汉市志(1980-2000) > 经济 下 > 第四十四篇 交通运输 > 第二章 铁路运输 Accessed 2011-12-18 The Wuhan–Daye or Wuda railway, from Wuchang to Daye, was built in 1958 to facilitate the transport of iron ore mined in Tieshan District near Daye.(Chinese) "湖北省>>黄石市>>铁山区" Accessed 2011-12-18 The Daye–Shahejie or Dasha railway, from Daye to Shahejie in Jiujiang, was built from 1983 to 1987.(Chinese) "武九铁路大沙段建成" Accessed 2011-12-18 The eastern terminus of the line, Lushan Station, is located in Shahejie. The combined Wujiu Line was doubled-tracked from 2003 to 2005 and electrified from 2008 to 2010.(Chinese) "中鐵施工的武九鐵路電氣化改造工程(武漢段)開工" 2008-12-22(Chinese) "武九铁路电气化改造" Xinhua 2009-12-02 Passenger trains can reach speeds of up to 250 km/h on the line. The line was formerly used by the frequent D-series high-speed trains running from Wuhan (mostly, the Wuchang Station) to Nanchang and points south and east (throughout Fujian and Zhejiang). The Wuhan–Jiujiang passenger railway, which was opened on 21 September 2017, has been built along a route generally similar to that of the Wuhan–Jiujiang railway. This has taken over much of the passenger service that formerly operated on the Wuhan–Jiujiang railway. The section from Wuchang to Nanmeimiao, passing through Shahu, Wuchang North and Badajia, was closed 11 May 2018. Dismantling commenced on 24 May and it is proposed to transform the corridor into a railway-themed landscape. Trains are now required to use the southern ring railway to reach Wuchang. Most stations on the remaining line are no longer served by passenger services.

"Abdur Razzaq (; – 28 November 1999) was a Bangladeshi scholar, academic, public intellectual and one of the first National Professors of Bangladesh. Early life and education Razzaq was born in 1914 in the Paragram village of Nawabganj Upazila of Dhaka District. His father, Abdul Ali, was a police officer. After his matriculation from the Government Muslim High School, Dhaka and intermediate exam from Dhaka College, he was admitted to the department of political economy at the University of Dhaka in 1931. In 1936, he completed his masters and then joined as a lecturer in the same department. When the department of political economy was bisected, he chose to join the department of political science. After the second world war, he went to London to study under Harold Laski at London School of Economics. He returned home without any formal degree after Laski had died in 1950 and carried on teaching in the department of political science at the University of Dhaka until 1975. He also taught in the departments of economics and international relations. Career Razzaq's political ideas influenced anti-Ayub-government movements during the 1960s; to get rid of his influence, the Ayub regime tried to "dismiss him from his teaching position at the University of Dhaka on the allegation that he was not mindful of his duties as a teacher, but which the government failed to establish in the court". During the Bangladesh Liberation War, he witnessed the March 1971 Dhaka University massacre. The Pakistanis came to arrest him at his home, but alerted by their kicking at his door, he escaped out the back. The Yahya Khan-government sentenced him in absentia to a fourteen-year rigorous imprisonment, accusing him of treasonable acts. Abdur Razzaq (left), Ahmed Sofa (right) Though Razzaq, apart from some essays and lectures, has no published works, many intellectuals have admitted his influence on their published works. Ahmed Sofa wrote his book, Jaddapi Amar Guru (Eventhough My Teacher), on Razzaq's life. Sardar Fazlul Karim published a book, Dhaka Bisshobiddalay O Purbabangya Samaj, based on his interviews of Razzaq. Salimullah Khan wrote a book on his lecture ‘’Bangladesh: State of the Nation’’. Muntassir Mamoon, Humayun Azad and others reminisced about him. It is claimed that he had as his students more than 70 members of parliament, among whom Sheikh Mujibur Rahman is the most notable. Honors To acknowledge his unique status as a teacher, the Government of Bangladesh honored him with the distinction of National Professor in 1975. In 1973, the University of Delhi awarded him an honorary D.Litt. degree.
