As an important national infrastructure, national economy artery and popular means of transportation, the

railway plays a very important role in the modern transportation system. In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that "all comrades of the party must always share the same breath, destiny and heart with the people, and always regard the people's yearning for a better life as the goal of struggle." When the society and economy develop at a high speed, we should always remember "never forget our original intention, never forget our mission". We should be brave to assume social responsibility and provide basic transportation guarantee for people's happy life. The development of

is always on the road, which is endless, but what we can do is to walk in the front of this road, constantly improve the system and service, only for the people to be able to take the car home, to be able to buy and afford the ticket home. The Chinese Railway carries the hope of the older generation of railway people, and now the achievement is that the older generation step by step They worked hard day and night to lay a solid foundation for the Chinese railway. They worked hard and bravely to open up a new railway one after another. They bear the responsibility of the older generation of Chinese Railway people.

"never forget the original mind and mission". On the road of developing railway construction, it also strengthens the service quality. In recent years, the railway sector has been constantly carrying out the people-centered development idea, adhering to the service concept of "taking service as the purpose and treating passengers as family members". In addition, it has been constantly reforming and innovating, and has become more and more distracted on the road of serving passengers.
