About:China Train

Very urgent
Dear Sir
I am an Egyptian student, and I arrived to Urumqi for practice in photo voltaic company call sunoasis here in Urumqi. I need to go to Xian city to meet my supervisor there and carry up some analysis for my thesis.

my problem is that I booked a ticket from Urumqi To Xian in the date of 27/9/2010 ( some Chinese student booked it for me), the train number is K544 and I will start the journey in 09:36 but when I checked the internet I found that this train will go first to the city of Chongqing North at the time of 05:56 and the duration of the journey is 0d44h20m and I did not find in the internet that this train will go to Xian, but I noticed that there is a train from Chongqing North to Xian ( the train number is K1004/K1001) that will arrive to Xian in 22:40 and the period of transit from my first train from Urumqi and this train is about four hours. This last train (K1004/K1001) will arrive in Xian in 22:40 after a journey of about 0d12h32m.
My questions are
1) is these information correct?
2) Can I change the train ticket for a shorter journey from Urumqi to Xian or not? How and when?
3) What is the shorter course from Urumqi to Xian?
4) I have some mineralogical samples about 2 kg , these samples are in powder form that i will analyze it in Xian with the help of my supervisor, my question about these samples is:
they will let me to ride the train with these samples or not?
for ur information they are not harmful , they are used for making the photo voltaic cells for changing the sun energy to electricity.
I will be grateful l if u answered my questions

The train K544 lastly arrives in Chongqing, but it stops at Xian Station. Thus, you could take the train to Xian directly, which takes around 33hrs. And usually, one passenger is allowed to take 20 kg (44 pounds) carry-on baggage for free on the train. Wish you had a good journey!
