There are two classes on Chinese trains: 'soft' and 'hard', further divided into sleepers and seats.
Soft sleeper compartments are air-conditioned 4-berth cabins, with two upper berths and two lower berths, which convert into seats for daytime use. All bedding is provided. There is a table and usually a Thermos flask of hot water for making tea. Top level trains like 'Z' class trains often have individual television screens and power sockets for laptops and mobiles.
Some trains between major cities have deluxe 2-berth compartments with private toilets. Alternatively, for private use for two persons it is possible to purchase tickets for the other two berths to ensure private occupancy. Hard sleepers are open carriages with bays of six bunk-berth compartments.
