Recently, China National Railway Group Co., Ltd. released data showing that in May, the national railway freight transportation maintained a strong growth trend, with 340million tons of goods sent, an increase of 21.1 million tons year-on-year, an increase of 6.6%, and the volume of goods sent in a single month hit a new record. This is another stable breakthrough in the high-level operation of railway freight after a number of indicators such as the monthly freight volume and daily average loading number of the railway in April reached a record high. This achievement was hard won. Since March, affected by the multi-point epidemic, transportation and other industries in many places have declined significantly, and the railway freight volume has increased steadily against the trend, making a positive contribution to making up for the transportation gap, ensuring the supply of materials for people's normal life, and promoting the resumption of work and production. Ensure that the key materials shall be fully transported From May 1 to 20, "China's first heavy haul road" Datong Qinhuangdao railway was shut down for 3 hours every day for three-dimensional centralized maintenance. In order to ensure the smooth transportation of coal and other key materials during the epidemic period, China Railway Taiyuan Bureau Group Corporation has implemented a more scientific and reasonable transportation scheme to achieve the correct combination of construction and transportation. "During the centralized maintenance and construction of Daqin line, the daily transportation volume has always remained above 1million tons. In May, a total of 33.827 million tons of coal were transported, and more than 20million tons of coal were stored in Qinhuangdao port, Tangshan port and Caofeidian port, providing coal security for production and living for 26 provinces, autonomous regions and cities." Zhang Qi, on duty director of the dispatching office of the group company, introduced. The relevant person in charge of the State Railway Group said that the railway department should give full play to the advantage of centralized and unified command of national railway dispatching, make full use of the transportation capacity vacated by the suspension and reduction of passenger cars for epidemic prevention and control, make overall use of resources such as locomotives, vehicles and locomotive stewards, increase the number of freight trains in key channels such as Beijing Harbin, Daqin, Tangbao, Wari and Haoji, increase the transportation capacity of Xinjiang coal, and compress the time limit for transportation, Provide transportation capacity support for the work of ensuring smooth traffic. According to the data, in May, the national railway sent 110million tons of power coal, a year-on-year increase of 7%. The average coal storage of 363 railway directly supplied power plants nationwide reached 33.4 days, maintaining a high level. It's not just coal. According to the person in charge of the freight Department of China Railway Group, in order to strengthen the freight organization, China Railway Group has established a leading group to ensure smooth transportation, established a daily working mechanism, coordinated the epidemic prevention and control and transportation organization, carried out in-depth freight war, ensured the safety and smoothness of the backbone channels of the domestic railway network and the international railway transportation channels, and effectively guaranteed the transportation of important people's livelihood materials, key production materials and anti epidemic materials, Provide strong support for promoting the stability of the industrial chain supply chain. All railway bureaus have also given full play to their subjective initiative to facilitate the transportation of goods. China Railway Xi'an Bureau Group keeps close contact with coal, coke, oil, steel, chemical and other bulk material production enterprises, accurately grasps the production, sales and transportation needs of enterprises, vigorously expands the business of "public rail transit" and sea rail intermodal transport, opens multiple special railway trains, solves the transportation problems for customers, ensures the stability of the industrial chain and supply chain, makes every effort to stabilize foreign trade and ensure smoothness, and helps enterprises resume production. According to the person in charge of the freight Department of the State Railway Group, in order to reduce the impact of the current epidemic on traffic, the railway department has also continuously strengthened the supply of production and living materials in key areas such as Shanghai, actively overcome the impact of the epidemic, scientifically arrange loading and unloading equipment, organize party and League members' commandos, and rush to transport all kinds of materials every minute, making a positive contribution to the "great Shanghai defense war". At the same time, the railway transportation service of key enterprises shall be well guaranteed, the transportation demand of raw materials and finished products shall be timely understood, and the railway transportation scheme shall be carefully formulated to help enterprises resume work and production, improve quality and efficiency, and accumulate strength for post epidemic development. Organize summer grain transportation without delaying farming time At about 18:00 on May 29, a freight train loaded with more than 1500 tons of wheat slowly departed from Zhengzhou North Marshalling Yard of China Railway Zhengzhou Bureau Group Co., Ltd. and headed for Liuzhou, Quanzhou and other regions in Guangxi. Known as the "granary of the Central Plains", Henan is a major agricultural and grain production province in China. At present, it is a good summer harvest season. Wheat in Henan Province has been reaped from south to north, and warehousing, processing and outward transportation have been fully started. In order to do a good job in the transportation of summer grain, Zhengzhou Bureau Group held a special meeting to study and formulate the transportation plan of summer grain, set up a working group, visit and investigate the wheat planting areas and processing enterprises, and accurately master the storage of summer grain and the transportation needs of enterprises; Relying on the new version of 95306 freight system, the 24-hour open acceptance business attracts shippers to deliver goods by rail with high-quality services; Implement the "five priority" measures of priority approval, priority destination, priority air distribution, priority loading and unloading, and priority loading and unloading, so as to realize the seamless connection of planned declaration, loading and shipping, arrival and unloading, and goods receiving. Affected by the epidemic situation in the 21st century and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the international food supply chain has been impacted and prices have soared. Summer grain is the first season of grain production in the whole year, accounting for more than one quarter of the annual output. Overcoming the impact of the epidemic to ensure the transportation of summer grain is very important to ensure national food security. According to the person in charge of the State Railway Group, the railway department carefully organized the supply and transportation of agriculture related, epidemic prevention and other key materials for the national economy and the people's livelihood, actively undertook the supply of "transit railway" goods, so as to ensure that all goods should be loaded and transported quickly, and ensure the smooth operation of the national economy. In May, the national railway sent 5.02 million tons of grain and chemical fertilizer, a year-on-year increase of 28.2%. The tomato sauce produced in Xinjiang is delicious and of high quality, and its products sell well at home and abroad. This year, there is a strong demand for tomato sauce and chili sauce produced in southern Xinjiang. During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, the Xinjiang Railway Department innovated the transportation organization mode, increased the inclination of transportation capacity, organized the wagons entering Southern Xinjiang to load nearby, and made full use of the third major channel in and out of Xinjiang - geku railway to transport tomato sauce, chili sauce and other special products, which is faster than the original transportation via Lanzhou Xinjiang Railway. "This year, we have shipped 31500 tons of ketchup, mainly to Shanghai, Tianjin and other places by railway, which was sold out as soon as it arrived at the station, and some to Russia, Kazakhstan and other places through ports. The railway transportation speed is getting faster and faster, and the transportation capacity is also greatly improved. Especially after the opening of the geku railway, we don't need to ship it in a centralized manner as before. We just need to ship it according to orders, saving a large amount of inventory costs 。” Said wangyueping, head of Logistics Department of Xinjiang guannong tomato products Co., Ltd. It is reported that since this year, Xinjiang Korla freight center alone has shipped 60800 tons of tomato sauce, an increase of 43.74% over the same period last year. Strengthening international intermodal transport to promote supply chain stability On May 19, a batch of rail sea combined transport trains of the new western land sea channel loaded with Chongzuo white sugar arrived at the east station of Qinzhou port, then transferred to the port. Two days later, they embarked on the ship and shipped to coastal cities across the country, starting a sweet journey. Chongzuo City in Guangxi is rich in sugar, accounting for one fifth of the country's sugar output. It is the largest city producing sugar in China, and was awarded the title of "sugar capital of China" in 2010. Chongzuo sugar was mainly sold to various places through "high seas" and highway transportation modes before taking the train of the new western land sea channel. Affected by the epidemic, the transportation cost fluctuated greatly with the market, and the transportation timeliness was unstable. Relying on advantageous resources such as ports, railways and air routes, China Railway Nanning Bureau Group Co., Ltd. adopts the method of "one box to the end, the original box to the original route", and transfers it to sea for sale to coastal cities across the country, so as to tailor the logistics characteristic scheme for Chongzuo sugar transportation. "One case to the end means that there is no need to change the case and unpack the goods in the relay of railway, sea and road transportation modes. One case can reach the destination directly, which not only reduces the loss of goods, but also saves the transportation time. It is expected that about 100 TEUs of Chongzuo sugar will be transferred from Qinzhou port east station to the sea every month in the future." Huangjiangnan, head of Qinzhou port east station of Nanning coastal railway company of China Railway Administration, said. "We have continuously strengthened the organization of China Europe trains, the new western land sea channel trains, and the international freight train transportation of China Laos railway, to ensure the smooth flow of international railway channels, strengthened communication and coordination with customs, border inspection, foreign affairs and other departments as well as railway enterprises of countries along the line, strengthened the organization of iron water intermodal transport, rushed to transport the overstocked containers from Tianjin port to Mongolia, promoted the capacity expansion and transformation of railway port stations, made good use of 95306 'digital ports' and improved the international intermodal transport capacity Efficiency helps China's foreign trade maintain stability and improve quality. " The head of China Railway Group said. According to the data, in May, 1357 China Europe trains were operated and 129500 TEUs were sent, with an average daily growth of 12% and 13.3% respectively month on month; 78000 TEUs were sent by the trains of the new land and sea channel in the west, an increase of 20.5% year on year; China Laos railway sent 138200 tons of cross-border goods, up 4.3% month on month; The iron water combined transport volume of major ports was 1.07 million TEUs, an increase of 35.1% year-on-year. The responsible person said that in the next step, China Railway Group will resolutely implement the deployment requirements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on stabilizing the overall economic market, adhere to the national railway strategic positioning, actively serve the overall situation of epidemic prevention and control and economic development, continue to strengthen the work of freight transportation, ensure the safety and smoothness of the railway artery, ensure the transportation needs of various market players with high quality and efficiency, and make contributions to the steady and healthy development of the economy and society.
