[vertical and horizontal] the slow train is full of people's feelings
In the era of high-speed railway transportation, 81 pairs of slow trains for public welfare and poverty alleviation are still maintained. This kind of train maintains the style of multi stop and slow speed at a price lower than the cost. It seems inappropriate, but it is true love for the people along the line. (according to China Railway wechat on October 16) the total mileage of
national high-speed railway will exceed 30000 kilometers in 2019, ranking first in the world, and becoming the main force of China's railway passenger transportation. In this context, there are still "slow trains" running in the last century, which is particularly striking.
these slow trains are mainly distributed in the southwest, northwest and northeast remote areas. It is the memory of an era, carrying many people's travel years and emotional sustenance, witnessing the development and changes along the railway, and is still the most realistic way to connect with the outside world.
for example, the 6238 train in Hulunbuir prairie and the deep part of Daxinganling, which has been running for nearly 70 years, still uses a tea stove to boil water for passengers to drink, which can be described as "pure handmade" and tastes warm. The train is still the lifeline for local residents and people to transport living materials, go out for medical treatment and send their children to school. Especially in the season of heavy rain in summer and snow in winter, the train becomes the only channel. On the Chengdu Kunming line, the 5633 / 5634 train is the most convenient "bus" for villagers in the hinterland of Daliang Mountain along the line. It is also the "school bus" carrying children's dream of studying. Every weekend, more than 600 primary and secondary school students take the slow train to and fro. The last carriage of the train is specially convenient for the villagers along the line to transport goods. The seats of the carriage have been cancelled and only benches have been installed. In the era of
high-speed railway, this kind of train seems to be ancient, but it is also the carrier of people's ideal along the line into reality. Because it's slow, you can stop at every station, and keep the low ticket price close to the people; although it's slow, like living a life, there is always a moment to reach your dream.
for decades, like the elderly, these trains have experienced vicissitudes, but they are strong, calm and peaceful. They have witnessed the rapid changes and prosperity of the country in their silent dedication. In the sense of satisfaction and gain of the masses, they still carry on with heavy load and write the years behind them into poems leading to the distance. A 6031 a 6031 changes the times, and what remains unchanged is the full feelings of "people's railway for the people". Although the slow train is slow, where the high-speed railway has not yet been able to reach, it is still the most close to the people's conditions of modern transportation. It is a rich car and a poverty alleviation car, full of strong feelings of people's livelihood. In the quiet years, with the people along the line will see through the landscape, leading to a better tomorrow.
