At 11:00 a.m. on May 18, the 75082 China Europe train with 57 loaders and 4 graders will leave the South Logistics Center of Liuzhou and leave through Manzhouli. It is expected to arrive at the walsino station in Moscow, Russia in 20 days, with a total distance of 11000 km. This is the first time that Guangxi has opened a cross-border direct train between China and Europe, opening up a new route of "Liuzhou Moscow", marking that "made in Guangxi" has realized "direct transportation all the way" through railway export.
The first train carried the products of Guangxi Liugong group. In 2002, Liugong became the first Chinese construction machinery manufacturer to explore the Russian market. Up to now, more than 18000 sets of construction machinery and equipment have been sold in Russia. Since the outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia, Liugong's export trade has been affected. In order to solve the export transportation problems of enterprises, China Railway Nanning Bureau Group Co., Ltd. has actively contacted Liuzhou group and China Railway Container Co., Ltd. and meticulously customized the "Liuzhou Moscow" cross-border direct train between China and Europe for Liuzhou group. The train does not need secondary marshalling according to the previous transit in Xi'an, and can leave the country in a "one-stop" mode, which provides reliable guarantee for the timely arrival and delivery of goods.
Luo guobing, vice president of Guangxi Liugong Machinery Co., Ltd., said: "with the opening of China Europe train (Liuzhou Moscow), compared with Liugong's traditional sea shipment to St. Petersburg port, and then trailer transportation to Moscow, the transportation time will be saved at least two weeks."
It is understood that one belt, one road opening ceremony, is the first Liuzhou Guangxi central Europe train line to organize the operation of the central European Group in accordance with the quality index of the China Railway Group, and enjoy the train of China and Europe's class of freight transport policy. It is the first China Europe direct train class for Guangxi's opening line, and it will promote Guangxi's deep participation in the "one belt road" construction and smooth access to Europe's international logistics corridor. It is of great significance to promote high-level opening-up and high-quality development.
In the future, one belt, one road to two trains of China and Europe, will be normalized in the new line of Guangxi railway's innovative transportation export mode, so that the "Guangxi made" quality products will continue to integrate into the "one belt and one road" construction.
