From the first self-built railway in China to the super project, the Beijing-Zhangzhou Railway is the pride of the nation.
At 14:18 on October 5, with the first 55201 comprehensive inspection vehicles departing from the new Changping Station of Beijing-Zhangzhou High-speed Railway, the joint commissioning of Beijing-Zhangzhou High-speed Railway started. During the joint commissioning and test period, the maximum test speed of Beijing-Zhangzhou high-speed railway is expected to reach 385 kilometers per hour. After the opening of the Beijing-Zhangzhou High-speed Railway, passengers can arrive at Zhangjiakou and Chongli Winter Olympics venues within an hour from Beijing. In 1905, the Qing government appointed Zhan Tianyou as chief engineer to build the railway from Beijing to Zhangjiakou. The railway passes near the Qinglong Bridge with a very large slope. How can a train climb such a steep slope? Zhan Tianyou designed a zigzag line along the mountain. This is a familiar passage of Zhan Tianyou in the sixth grade Chinese textbook of primary school. The spirit of China's railway self-improvement has been deeply imprinted in children's hearts with Zhan Tianyou.
1909, the Beijing-Zhangzhou Railway was built. This is the first self-designed and constructed railway in China. It is more than 200 kilometers long and lasts more than four years. It is a pioneering work of Railway Engineering Technology in China. It is of great significance. Nowadays, under the Beijing-Zhangzhou Railway, which Zhan Tianyou presided over, super-projects have emerged: speed 350 kilometers per hour, depth 102 meters! A 6031 A 6031 A super project has been launched here at the depth of more than 100 meters in Yanshan Mountains. It is the largest and deepest underground railway station in the world at present: Badaling underground station of Beijing-Zhangzhou high-speed railway. The Beijing-Zhangzhou high-speed railway has a depth of 102 meters, and above the tunnel is the world cultural heritage: Badaling Great Wall. 110 years ago, Zhan Tianyou built the first railway in China, the Beijing-Zhangzhou Railway. This herringbone railroad can enable the steam locomotive with insufficient horsepower to use two locomotives to push forward and backward over the mountains. Today, the Beijing-Zhangzhou high-speed railway will be here, running 350 kilometers per hour! At the beginning of the founding of New China, the total railway mileage was only 22,000 kilometers, and the average speed of railway travel was only 43 kilometers. In 1949, the number of railway passenger transmissions was only 102 million per year. As one of the important pillars to boost economic development, China Railway will never forget the original intention of "People's Railway for the People", which has been advancing for 70 years, daring to do something bravely, from 40 kilometers to 350 kilometers per hour, from "Green Leather Vehicle" to "Renaissance", from "one ticket is hard to get" to "walk-and-walk", from paper ticket to electronic ticket, from manual ticket checking to brushing one's face, so as to make passengers experience more beautiful. OK, it's more convenient to travel. From having nothing to leading the world trend, Chinese railways are inseparable from the arduous struggle of generations of railroad workers. Whether from the engineering construction or from serving the people's livelihood, the railway people never move forward, dare to be the first! During the Golden Week of the National Day just past, countless Chinese railroad workers stick to their posts and make great contributions to transportation during the National Day. According to the data of China National Railway Group Co., Ltd., from September 28 to October 7, 138 million passengers were sent by national railways, an increase of 7.087 million, or 5.4 percent, over the same period last year. State Railway Group copes with the peak passenger flow during the Golden Week of the National Day through various service modes, and meets the needs of the vast number of passengers for vacation travel to the maximum extent. A 6031 A 6031 Super Railway projects constantly refresh the Chinese people's understanding of railways, and satisfy the people's higher pursuit of a happy life through good trips. China Railway, you cross the wind and rain, bring sunshine and rain, so how can the people not love you? How can we not be proud of you? (Author: Su Ziduo)
