Various of train moving Storyline China's railway network has handled 4.28 billion passenger trips in the first 11 months of this year, up 6.6 percent year on year, marking a record high for the same period in history, the country's railway operator, China State Railway Group Co., Ltd. (CSRG), said on Tuesday. Since the beginning of this year, the CSRG has focused on market demand and continued to increase passenger transport capacity. From January to November, the railway system ran an average of 11,258 passenger trains per day, an increase of 7.1 percent year on year. The group also strengthened cross-border passenger services, steadily operating international trains between China and Vietnam, China and Russia, and China and Mongolia. During the 11-month period, the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong High-Speed Railway and the China-Laos Railway made 28.94 million and 244,000 cross-border passenger trips, respectively, boosting cross-border tourism and effectively facilitating people-to-people exchanges and trade. While expanding transport capacity, the company has also continuously upgraded its services. In the first 11 months, it introduced new ticketing products, including multi-ride tickets, period passes, and tourist multi-ride tickets. As winter arrived, it rolled out new offerings such as dedicated winter tourism trains, updated versions of tourist multi-ride tickets, and convenient ski-equipment travel services to meet seasonal travel demand and stimulate new consumption scenarios. Starting Nov 27, 212 railway stations nationwide have launched 25 new versions of multi-ride tourist tickets, allowing passengers to freely select between two to 10 journey segments among designated origin and destination stations, making train travel more convenient.
