Chengdu-Lodz rail link to add new stop
Print Edition
A cargo train route that links Chengdu with the Polish city of Lodz will add a new station in western Europe, it was announced yesterday.
The candidates include France, Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, said Chengdu officials who attended the third Asia-Europe Meeting in Latvia.
The 9,826-kilometer Chengdu-Lodz line, which boasts the fastest freight train on the Eurasian continent, leaves China at the Alataw Pass in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region before going through Kazakhstan, Russia and Belarus on its way to Poland. From Lodz, cargo can reach any country in Europe within three days by rail or land.
As of April, the line had transported over 20,000 tons of cargo from China worth more than US$600 million since it was opened in 2013.
Another regular cargo train linking Heilongjiang Province to central Russia was launched in February.
