Chengdu's first multi express train successfully started
On May 5, a multi connected express train loaded with 39 groups of containers and nearly 2500 tons of gravel left Ebian station and drove to Puxing station, all of which were shipped in 35 tons of open top boxes. This marks a breakthrough in the operation of multiple express trains in Chengdu Branch of China Railway Container Transportation Co., Ltd.
Since this year, China Railway Container Co., Ltd. has made great efforts to promote the construction of multimodal transport operation enterprises, actively carry out marketing and organize the operation of multimodal express while doing a good job in epidemic prevention and control. In April, they organized a marketing team to investigate the market sources in Emei for many times, and found that the local gravel cargo volume was large, but the cost of road transportation logistics was high. Subsequently, they actively communicated and cooperated with local gravel enterprises, relevant logistics companies, Emei train depot, Ebian station, Puxing station and other units to strive for the freight rate fluctuation policy of Emei train depot. Finally, with the joint efforts of many parties, the express train from Ebian to Puxing finally started smoothly.
The operation of the multi express train not only reduces the logistics and transportation cost of the gravel in Emei area, improves the economic benefits of relevant enterprises, but also builds an efficient and fast logistics channel for the gravel transportation in Emei area. In the next step, China Railway Container Company will continue to vigorously carry out multimodal transport work and accelerate the development of the brand of multimodal express.
