"Hulk" EMU appears in Macheng, the old district of Dabie Mountain
Wuhan, China. Com, January 2 at 20:47 on December 31, 2019, the d740 train slowly entered platform 5 of Macheng railway station in the old district of Dabieshan. This is the first time for Hubei Macheng station to pass EMU trains since Beijing Jiulong Railway was put into operation 23 years ago. The appearance of
"Hulk" EMU is quite similar to that of Fuxing bullet train. The interior decoration is basically the same as that of high-speed train. At present, the speed of ordinary passenger trains on the Beijing Kowloon line is about 120 km / h, while the "Hulk" can reach 160 km / h at the fastest speed, which can save 4 to 5 hours compared with ordinary fast passenger trains. It is understood that d740 starts from Sanming north and ends at Beijing West Railway Station. Arrive at Macheng railway station at 20:47, depart at 20:49 and stop for 2 points; stop at Fuyang, Heze and Liaocheng railway stations along the way; it takes 9 hours and 13 minutes for Macheng to arrive at Beijing West. The fare is divided into three categories: first-class sleeper 414 yuan, second-class sleeper 250 yuan and second-class seat 166 yuan, which is not much different from that of Ordinary Express passenger train. Before
, Macheng train depot of Wuhan railway had planned ahead of time to respond to changes in train operation with "changes in measures". In this section, a special staff will be set up to sort out the information of train operation changes, revise the operation standards according to the new changes, organize the staff to carry out business training, supplement the supporting equipment and facilities, and make sufficient preparations. The "Hulk" EMU train will also add a strength for passengers to travel safely, orderly and warm during the subsequent Spring Festival transportation.
