In the early winter of Tianshan Mountain in Xinjiang, snow covers the top of the mountain. The Lanzhou Xinjiang high-speed railway trains are flying at the foot of Tianshan Mountain. The high-speed railway changes people's lives, accelerates the flow of people and logistics, and helps the rapid development of regional economy.

On November 16, 2014, the first high-speed railway in Xinjiang, the South Hami section of Urumqi Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway, was put into operation, and Xinjiang entered the era of high-speed railway. After rain and snow, strong wind, Spring Festival and summer vacation, the south to Hami section of Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway has been put into operation for 5 years. With the advantages of safety, speed and efficiency, it has changed the traffic pattern in the western region and facilitated the travel of all ethnic groups.

The south of Urumqi Hami section of Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway is mainly composed of scheduled EMU trains. With the increase of passenger flow, the number of EMU trains increased from 6.5 pairs per day at the beginning to 22 pairs per day at present. Before the Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway was put into operation, the normal speed trains from Urumqi to Hami would have to run for more than 8 hours, often affected by strong winds, heavy snow and sandstorms. After the opening and operation of Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway, the customized high-temperature EMU trains, which are resistant to high temperature, wind and sand, are specially designed for high-temperature areas, providing guarantee for passengers to travel in bad weather, and making it possible for passengers to take the high-speed railway to travel as soon as they can.

China Railway Urumqi Bureau Group Co., Ltd. precisely connects with the market and conforms to the travel needs of all ethnic groups. The operation mode of high-speed rail EMU trains is more close to the market. According to the dynamic changes of passenger flow, weekend EMU and holiday EMU are opened again, with more and more trains. The degree of public transportation of EMU trains is greatly improved, and the time from Urumqi to Turpan, Shanshan and Hami is greatly increased It's getting shorter and shorter, especially from Urumqi to Hami, which can be reached by EMU train as fast as 2 hours and 23 minutes, which improves the economic exchanges between cities and makes the exchanges between cities more convenient.

In the No. 7 carriage of d8804 EMU train on that day, the 73 year old Zhang Changling and his wife were particularly attractive. Five years ago, Zhang Changling bought the first ticket for the operation of the South Urumqi Hami section of the Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway. He is a witness of the Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway and a loyal fan of the railway. He can be seen every time Xinjiang Railway runs a bus.

"At that time, in order to witness the opening and operation of South Urumqi Hami section of Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway, I went to the railway station to buy high-speed railway tickets in the morning and experienced the first EMU train, which will be unforgettable for my whole life." "In the 1980s, it was very difficult to buy train tickets," Zhang said. Nowadays, it is very convenient to buy train tickets and take high-speed rail. It has become a common thing in people's life. I wish the Chinese Railway better and better. "

On the same day, it coincided with the 24th birthday of Zhang Juanxiu, the crew member of the EMU of Urumqi passenger section. She had been a high-speed rail crew member for more than three years. She said excitedly, "I feel very lucky and happy to celebrate my birthday on such a special day. I will do my best to serve the passengers and build a good image of the railway. "

The driver of this d8804 EMU train is ADI Turdi in the EMU workshop of Urumqi locomotive depot. He is the first generation of Uygur EMU driver in Xinjiang. Before driving, he said: "I am very proud to witness the rapid development of Xinjiang Railway, and it is my biggest responsibility to deliver every passenger to the destination safely."

In the past five years since the opening and operation of Urumqi Hami section of Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway, the changes have been all-round. On November 16, 2014, when the south to Hami section of Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway was put into operation, the passenger boarding and landing, and the departure and arrival of EMU trains were all at Urumqi south station. On August 12, 2016, the passenger boarding and landing were officially adjusted to Urumqi station, which greatly improved the passenger travel experience. The modern Urumqi station has greatly improved its service facilities. The number of seats in the waiting hall has increased to 4534, and there are many restaurants, shopping and entertainment shops around. The entry channel has also changed from the original independent two channels to the current 26 real name entry channels on both sides of the north and the South.

In addition to convenient passenger travel, the south of Urumqi Hami section of Lanzhou Xinjiang High Speed Railway continues to provide impetus for Xinjiang's economic development. Since the opening and operation of the south to Hami section of the Lanzhou Xinjiang high speed railway in five years, it has not only realized the connection between the western region and the inland passenger transport channel, but also played a great role in the passenger and freight diversion in this section. The freight trains from Xinjiang to the mainland have gradually increased, providing sufficient transport capacity guarantee for the outward transportation of Xinjiang's coal, cotton, fruits and other products, and promoting the rapid transformation of local resource advantages For economic advantage.

Great beauty Xinjiang, high-speed rail builds dreams. In five years, the steel dragon galloped in the western border of the motherland. In the future, it will continue to write legends.
