What is the experience of working on the Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway? With more than 10 years of work experience, Jia Shicong, the train crew chief, has the most right to speak.
You must know that the history of the railway from Beijing to Zhangjiakou has been more than 100 years. The Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway, opened to traffic in 1909, was the first completely Chinese own railway, designed and put into operation by the Chinese themselves. In 2019, the Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway was put into operation, and its opening made the railway running time from Beijing to Zhangjiakou the fastest from the original 35 hours shortened to about 1 hour.
Jia Shicong said: "Look, this is my 'artifact' on my way to work. In 2010, the first ordinary speed train I was on was a green car. My family is in Zhangjiakou, and every time I take a ride, I rush from Zhangjiakou to Beijing, and then go to work. Every time I commute to work, I have to spend hours, sometimes late, and every time I go to work, I feel like I'm going over the mountains'. When I have nothing to do on the road, I read a book. When I first started working, it was my turn to be on duty, and I had to prepare a day in advance. Now it is much more convenient, you can get to Beijing in one hour by taking the Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway, if I am going out in the afternoon, I can start from Zhangjiakou at noon. ”
As soon as the commute time is shortened, the happiness is immediately improved. So what's the difference in the ride environment? Let's follow Captain Jia to have a look.
Jia Shicong said: "You see, each seat has a charging socket, and the business class car also supports wireless charging of mobile phones." The button for hot water has also become a touch screen, and there are both cold and hot water. There are barrier-free toilets on the train, and there are wheelchair spaces reserved for special key passengers. And there is also a ski storage place on the bus, which is convenient for passengers to ski in Zhangjiakou. ”
The Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway has allowed Zhangjiakou to join the circle of friends of "Beijing Hour". In the four years since its opening, the Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway has operated more than 2,600 times. Since 2024, an average of 5160,000 person-times. The roaring train connects not only Beijing and Zhangzhou, but also dreams and distances!
