URUMQI, July 20 (Xinhua) — As of July 18, 100 e-commerce express freight trains had been sent from Urumqi in China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region to Xi'an in Shaanxi Province in 2025, according to the China Railways Urumqi Branch.
In January this year, the first express freight train between Urumqi and Xi'an was launched, which was also the first such train to leave Xinjiang outside the region. Since the launch of the service, the speed of trains on this route has increased from 90 to 120 km per hour, and the travel time has been reduced by about 10 hours.
"We have reduced the travel time of express trains to about 36 hours, which allows local products such as fruits, walnuts and milk to be delivered from Xinjiang to other regions more quickly," said Li Xiao, an employee of the railway logistics center at the aforementioned branch of the CZR.
JD Logistics representative for the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Ma Chunjun said that the delivery of parcels used to take three to four days, but with the launch of the Urumqi-Xi'an express e-commerce freight trains, the delivery time has been reduced to 48 hours. According to him, JD has already transported 400,000 parcels on this route. -0-
