Beijing, December 29 (Xinhua) — Since 2018, more than 4,000 freight trains have passed through the Suifenhe port in northeast China's Heilongjiang Province on the China-Russia border, operating on the China-Europe international rail freight transport routes, according to a statement posted on the official website of the Suifenhe city government.
According to the Harbin branch of China Railways, on December 25 at 1:37 PM, a China-Europe train, fully loaded with cargo, departed Suifenhe Railway Station for Europe. This brings the total number of such trains that have passed through this border crossing since 2018, when the service was launched at Suifenhe, to 4,092, carrying over 390,000 TEU (Ten U) containers.
To effectively develop China-Europe freight train services, the aforementioned branch, while continuously improving the infrastructure of the Suifenhe checkpoint, built a container loading and unloading area and installed specialized equipment, increasing loading and unloading efficiency by 15%. At the same time, a "digital checkpoint" was launched, integrating data from customs, the railway department, and border control, significantly reducing customs inspection time for China-Europe trains.
Currently, China-Europe rail routes passing through the Suifenhe checkpoint cover five European countries and more than 20 Chinese cities. Moreover, the range of goods carried by these trains is becoming increasingly diversified and has expanded to include a range of high-value-added goods, including household appliances, automobiles, and auto parts.
