City adds train services for Spring Festival travel rush
The city's first added train service for the Spring Festival travel rush , also known as Chunyun, was set off Thursday morning to divert traffic in advance.
The train K4663, carrying 312 passengers, left Shanghai South Railway Station at 7:07am, heading for Chengdu of southwest China's Sichuan Province.
"My work has been done. As there's nothing to do here, why not go back earlier?" a passenger surnamed Yang, 20, told Shanghai Daily on the train.
Yang, from Kaili of southwest China's Guizhou Province, was a temporary construction worker in Shanghai.
A total of 10 added train services have been scheduled before January 24 to run from Shanghai to cities including Chengdu, Guiyang of Guizhou Province and Hefei of east China's Anhui Province, to divert the huge traffic of Chunyun, from January 24 to March 3.
"Our records show the added services are mainly heading for the major origins of migration workers, as the traffic is larger and the travel rush starts earlier," Yao Xiang, the railway station chief on duty told Shanghai Daily.
From January 24 to February 7, the city's three railway stations is scheduled to add 89 train services a day averagely.
