Kunming, December 3 (and Pavilion) What is it like to drive a train to Guomen? Hu Jian, the driver of the Fuxing EMU of the Kunming Locomotive Depot of China Railway Kunming Bureau Group Company, knows best. As the first Chinese EMU driver to enter the China-Laos Railway Friendship Tunnel, Hu Jian's tone was full of pride: "As the train moved, when I reached the junction of the Chinese flag and the Lao flag in the Friendship Tunnel, I couldn't help but wet my eyes, at that moment, I felt the pride of being a Chinese, and even more proud of being a Chinese high-speed rail driver." ”
In 2010, at the age of 18, Hu Jian enlisted in the army. The life of the army made him transform from a young boy into a tough and brave soldier in the process of climbing and fighting. As a native of Honghe, Yunnan, who is located on the border line, Hu Jianda listened to the adults around him say "the story of the happy life pulled by the train", which made him yearn to become a railway worker. In 2013, Hu Jian faded his military uniform and changed into a work uniform, and came to the Kunming aircraft maintenance section as desired to start a "dream journey".

From the trainees, co-drivers to drivers, and then from freight drivers and passenger drivers to Fuxing drivers, along the way, Hu Jian has been steady and steady every step, and has personally experienced the changes in the speed of Yunnan trains. In the industry for 8 years, Hu Jian has continuously learned the business knowledge related to railway locomotive operation and strived to improve and hone himself.
On the eve of the opening of the China-Laos Railway, Hu Jian enthusiastically signed up, and finally with excellent driving skills, he was determined to take the Kunming to Mohan section of the China-Laos Railway. "It is my honor to be able to drive the Renaissance Mercedes on the China-Laos Kunwan Railway!" In the face of new challenges, Hu Jian did not dare to relax at any time. On the basis of the experience of riding the Fuxing, he held the idea of the first trip to explore and summarize each car, summarizing the impulsive reasons of each impulse point, the initial deceleration time of each passenger station, and the implementation of the operation standard was not sloppy at all.
In September 2021, Hu Jian was selected to participate in the transfer mission of the LaoS EMU "Lancang". "When I first saw the 'Lancang', it was really eye-opening," Hu Jian said: "The appearance of the locomotive is made of stitching the color of the Chinese flag and the color of the Lao national flag, and the words 'Lancang' are even more dazzling, the interior is both comfortable and technological, and the operation is more convenient and convenient." ”
On October 15, Hu Jian officially began the handover task of the "Lancang". In order to prevent crossing the border, the Kunming Bureau Group Company decided to send the "Lancang" to Laos by means of a push. In the beginning, the front of the EMU was pushed to 50 meters above the border line by a Chinese internal combustion locomotive, and Hu Jian moved forward after getting off the front of the car, and after the front of the locomotive crossed the border, the locomotive in Laos was pulled over.
Due to the epidemic situation, Hu Jian had already put on protective clothing in advance before the push task began, and had "zero contact" with foreign drivers. When the train began to move closer to the Friendship Tunnel, Hu Jian solemnly sorted out his clothes, straightened his waist, and reminded himself in his heart: "I am the first EMU driver to enter the Friendship Tunnel, and I must maintain the image of a Chinese high-speed rail driver." ”
"As a national driver, I'm really excited to witness a historic moment in my career." On the 3rd, the China-Laos Railway was opened for operation, connecting Kunming, Yunnan, China and Vientiane, Laos. Hu Jian said that his biggest wish is that when the epidemic is over, he can take his family to Laos on the Fuxing boat he drove and feel the happy life of the train "pulling". (End)
