At 4:25 a.m., the DJ882 EMU train was fully loaded and departed from Luoyang Town Station in Kunming City, Yunnan Province.
This is a "special" train, which does not sell tickets and has no seats in the carriages, but it is "full" every day.
"The train only transports goods and does not carry passengers, and the 'passengers' are high-efficiency express mail such as flowers and fruits, clothing and clothing, biomedicine, and electronic products." China Railway Express Co., Ltd. Kunming Branch Kunming South Station high-speed rail fast operation department manager Mao Zhiyuan introduced, the train carried the Kunming City and Chengdu part of the express supply of two-way transport tasks, early in the morning, after nearly 6 hours of travel, arrived at 10:31 a.m., to ensure that the express can be delivered before 18 o'clock on the same day.
Last year, China Railway Express Co., Ltd. relied on the strong capacity of the Shanghai-Kunming high-speed railway and the Chengdu-Guizhou high-speed railway, and took the lead in piloting the high-speed rail express batch transportation service between Kunming and Chengdu using the whole EMU. The train is transformed from CRH2A EMUs, with a maximum running speed of 250 kilometers, which has the advantages of large transportation capacity, low energy consumption and high timeliness.
The goods are transported via conveyor belts
Luoyangzhen Station is the intermediate station of the connecting line from Kunming Station to Kunming South Railway Station, which can be directly connected to the Shanghai-Kunming Line and the lines in Dali in Yunnan Province, with a superior geographical location. About 39 tons of goods are sent from Luoyangzhen Station every day, and 49 tons of goods are transported from Chengdu to Kunming. Due to its proximity to Kunming Dounan Flower Market, the proportion of flowers in the goods has reached 26%.
"The use of Luoyangzhen Station to develop high-speed rail express business is a specific action to implement the central government's deployment of strengthening high-speed rail freight capacity building, and it can also use the high-speed rail express capacity to help Yunpin out of Yunnan." Mao Zhiyuan explained.
The staff packs the goods
In order to ensure the punctuality of the train and improve the efficiency of loading and unloading, automation technology has become a good "helper". Belt conveyors have been installed above and below the platform to ensure that goods can reach each carriage through the conveyor belt at a speed of 1 meter per second. "We will also move the security check forward, conduct a pre-security check in the transit yard of the logistics company, and return some contraband on the spot to reduce the toss and turn." Mao Zhiyuan roughly calculated that the unloading time of the whole train can be controlled within 1 hour at the earliest.
A fully loaded train is ready to depart
From July 12 last year to July 11 this year, the high-speed rail express trains at Luoyangzhen Station and Chengdu Shuangliu West Station have been connected for 325 days. Among them, 1,008,000 pieces and 11,848.6 tons of goods were shipped from Kunming; The shipment from Chengdu was 1.599 million pieces and 15,665.5 tons.
At present, the railway department has opened 21 high-speed rail express service stations in Yunnan Province, including Kunming Station, Kunming South Station, Dali Station, Lijiang Station, Pu'er Station, Xishuangbanna Station, Qujing North Station, etc., covering 12 states and cities in the province. The launch of high-speed rail express trains will create an economical, efficient and convenient green logistics channel for intercity cargo transportation, and help the high-quality development of the real economy.
