I am trying to get from the Shijiazhuang Airport (SJW) to Beijing on a Friday afternoon, departing between 1500 and 1700 hours. I have been told that it will take 90 minutes drive to get from SJW to the Shijiazhuang train station and I am better off hiring a taxi (3 hours drive) to go directly to Beijing from SJW.

Based on this website, I think I can take a taxi (30-45 minutes drive) from SJW to the Shijiazhuang North train station, and take the two-hour train ride on the fast train (such as D2010) to Beijing West train station. Is this correct?

Thank you for your help!
