The railway department refines the service to warm the way home for passengers
During the Spring Festival travel period, the railway department increased the service for key passengers, refined various details, and made passengers more heart-warming on the way home.

The Nanchang Bureau of the National Railway hangs a "five-color identification plate" next to the seats of key passengers such as the elderly, the young, the sick, the disabled, and the pregnant on the train, so that the staff can continue to pay attention to it and provide timely help.
As the number of passengers returning home for the Chinese New Year gradually increases, more and more items are prohibited or restricted from rail transportation at stations.
