Recently, the China-Europe Express, an important transportation route between China and Europe, has attracted widespread attention. As one of the world's leading railway freight routes, the China-Europe Railway Express has played an important role in realizing the integration of Eurasian relations and the mutually beneficial development of Eurasia. It is worth mentioning that at the beginning of this plan, it was highly questioned, but with the passage of time and the deepening of practice, its advantages gradually emerged, and won the appreciation of the majority of international friends and investors. This article will introduce in detail the operation mode of the China-Europe Railway Express and its far-reaching impact.
Since its opening in 2011, the China-Europe freight train has been born as an important freight link between China and Europe. This 13,000-kilometer-long railway line connects nearly 100 cities in Asia and Europe, covering a wide range of areas, which is really rare. The departure stations of the China-Europe Railway Express are mainly located in Beijing, Shanghai and other big cities in China, and the terminus is concentrated in European cities such as Munich in Germany and Lodz in Poland. Despite many doubts and challenges at the beginning, after unremitting efforts and positive adjustments, the China-Europe Railway Express has now become an important trade route for China, injecting new vitality into the economic prosperity of Eurasia.
Compared with traditional maritime transportation, China-Europe freight trains have obvious advantages. First of all, the range is short and the speed is fast. It is understood that it can be reached in 21 days from Xi'an to Munich, Germany. In contrast, shipping by sea takes more than a few weeks. Secondly, the China-Europe freight train is low in price and high in stability. At present, the freight rate of the China-Europe freight train departing from Xi'an, China is comparable to that of sea transportation, but the quality is higher and the goods can be delivered to the destination safely and without damage. In addition, the China-Europe Railway Express has good sustainability, which is in line with the current trend of global environmental protection and sustainable development.
The China-Europe Railway Express has developed rapidly and achieved remarkable results. Since 2018, the China-Europe Railway Express has sent more than 4 million TEUs of goods, building a new pattern of common development and shared prosperity. What's even more eye-catching is that in just a few months after its opening, the China-Europe Express has achieved profitability, bringing huge profits to related enterprises. Nowadays, when it comes to trans-Eurasian transportation, the China-Europe train has almost become the preferred option.
However, doubts about this emerging industry have not yet been silenced. Some people are worried that the rapid development of China-Europe freight trains may have an impact on ocean freight. In this regard, we believe that the China-Europe freight train provides a supplement to maritime transportation and is an important force to promote global trade circulation, and only by coordinating the relationship between the two can the logistics industry be more prosperous. We look forward to more investment and cooperation in the operation of the China-Europe Express.
In view of the achievements of the China-Europe Railway Express and its irreplaceability in the development of global trade, we firmly believe that the prospects of this project will be broader. It will continue to play an important role in promoting the win-win development of Eurasia and make greater contributions to the prosperity of global trade. Here, we would like to express our gratitude to people from all walks of life at home and abroad who have supported the development of the China-Europe Railway Express for a long time. At the same time, we also hope that all countries can work together to share the precious resources of the blue planet and create a better future.
