A gift for my daughter
——Follow up record of g488 train in Wuhan
"Door closed!" "Drive on time!" At 10:49 on February 3, the high-speed railway of Nanchang locomotive depot prepared to guide the driver Yin Shitao to put on the mask, lift his arm skillfully and make the departure gesture.
As soon as the voice dropped, Yin Shitao pulled back the brake handle with his left hand and skillfully operated the traction handle with his right hand. The g488 train left Nanchang west station smoothly. The train will pass through Wuhan, all the way north.
Yin Shitao, 41, is from rural Jiangxi Province. After 21 years of hard work, he got the "j1photo" of the high-speed rail EMU, was able to drive all types of locomotives, and became a "locomotive master".
In the face of the new coronavirus infection of pneumonia, China Railway Nanchang Bureau Group Co., Ltd. decided to select 20 drivers from Nanchang locomotive depot to rush to Wuhan, take 6 pairs of trains from Nanchang West through Wuhan to Zhengzhou East, and set up a party member commando team, ready to go online at any time. After learning the news, the drivers of high-speed rail in Nanchang locomotive depot asked for battle one after another, and more than 100 people wrote the letter of invitation. Yin Shitao is not willing to fall behind. He has submitted his application to the organization twice, and was finally selected as one of the 20 elite drivers to support Wuhan.
At 11:32, the g488 train stopped at Lushan station. Li Jun, Yin Shitao's partner, replaced him. Yin Shitao said that they usually only have one driver on duty. Now the epidemic is in the critical stage of prevention and control, and another driver has been added to the train.
Yin Shitao told reporters that in order to get familiar with the new operation route as soon as possible, he came to Zhengzhou east railway station on January 31. He was wearing a mask, looking at the strange platform, looking at the passengers passing by the opposite platform in a hurry, and felt the burden on his shoulder was heavy. February 3 was his first trip to support Wuhan.
At 11:34, the train left Lushan station. The reporter asked Yin Shitao, "have you considered the danger?" Yin Shitao looked out of the window and said calmly, "of course, I've thought about it, but brother Bureau Group Co., Ltd. has difficulties. As a high-speed rail driver, we will feel guilty if we don't lend a hand. To be able to do something for Wuhan, I feel secure. "
"Arrival signal double yellow flashing, side line, speed limit 80 km!" At 12:36, the train is about to enter Wuhan station. Reporters and two drivers, as well as the cadres of Nanchang locomotive depot, all looked at the front. "Confirm the exit certificate and stop in the red and yellow light station!" As the train slowly entered the station, Yin Shitao repeated the instructions meticulously, "platform on the left, pay attention to the benchmarking! Control the speed to prevent exceeding the standard! "
Two minutes later, the g488 train stopped at Wuhan station stably. Yin Shitao pointed to the parking space and said at the same time: "the benchmarking is correct!" Then he pointed to the platform: "left platform, open the left door!" With his left hand, he pressed the button marked "left door" and the door opened.
The cold wind "swished" in from the platform, and there was no passenger on the spacious platform. According to the requirements, Wuhan station must operate according to the normal transportation plan even if no passengers get on the train.
Six minutes later, train g488 set off again, continued to go north, and sped towards Zhengzhou.
Two hours later, the train arrived at Zhengzhou east station. According to the routing arrangement, Yin Shitao and his colleagues will take another EMU from here to return to Nanchang west station after a short rest. "Yin Shitao was selected to support Wuhan because of his excellent skills and twice submitted applications," said Wan Qian, a cadre of Tian Cheng. After careful consideration, the unit approved his request. "
"When he came to Wuhan, didn't his family worry?" The reporter asked. "His age is the pillar of his family." Wan Qian continued, "his mother has gastric cancer, has just had an operation, and needs to be looked after. He has two children, the oldest is 13 years old and the youngest is only 6 years old. " When it comes to children, Yin Shitao pulls out a message from his mobile phone: "this is the winter vacation composition written by my eldest brother. My wife secretly sent it to me." The child wrote in his composition: "this Spring Festival is another one without a father. My father is a high-speed rail driver. He has been very busy since I remember. Tomorrow is my 13th birthday. I especially hope my father can accompany me for my birthday. I want to hear him sing a birthday song for me... " Seeing this, the reporter felt sad. Looking at Yin Shitao again, his eyes are also full of tears. Wan Qian encourages Yin Shitao to record a video for the child with his mobile phone. Yin Shitao is a little embarrassed, recording and singing: "Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."
"Sent successfully!" Though separated by mask, mobile phone and distance, Yin Shitao's singing is still beautiful. This song carries a deep father's love and is passed thousands of miles away. It becomes a special gift given to his daughter by a motor car driver in a special period.
