Nostalgia is a small train ticket
It touches the returnee who is full of longing
It's another year of Spring Festival
It's another year to go home
This is the largest periodic migration in human history
It is the common memory of several generations of Chinese
The station is the epitome of the Spring Festival
The joy of returning home
Reluctance to part
Eager to help
……
The train station for the Spring Festival
There are many warm moments left

When the heavy baggage is carried like an arrow
When the warm love of strangers illuminates the journey
The way home
It doesn't seem to be long anymore
