AN express container train between Xian and Lianyungang has started to roll, reports Xinhua.
The weekly service with 50 container chassis cars departs from Xian East Station goes to the West Station before heading for Lianyungang and returning.
The service will stabilise loading and unloading time and go some way to ameliorate shortage of capacity. The service is significant for Lianyungang as it will allow access to the strong foreign trade market of Xian, as well as forming a foundation for a future twice a week shuttle.
