At around 11:30 a.m.

on October 22,

as the whistle sounded,

the China-Europe freight train X8059

departed from Puhe station

in Shenyang,

bound for Moscow, Russia.

As of now,

China-Europe freight trains

have made over 140,000 trips,

carrying goods

worth more than $560 billion.

Such scenes

are taking place every day.

Since the beginning of this year, the China-Europe freight trains from Liaoning Province have made a total of 726 trips, transporting 73,722 TEUs of cargo, representing year-on-year increases of 16.7% and 15.0%, respectively, ranking first in Northeast China and among the top nationwide.

As the only national-level CR Express Hub in Northeast China, the CR Express (Shenyang) Hub has operated for three years, accumulating over 2,400 round-trip trains, transporting more than 250,000 TEUs of cargo, serving over 2,000 domestic and international enterprises, with a peak daily volume of 9 round-trip trains.

A China-Europe freight train takes about 12 days from Shenyang to Russia and about 18 days to reach central Europe, reducing transportation time by two-thirds compared to sea freight, while the overall cost is only one-fifth that of air freight.

The "Shenyang-Bely Rast" premium freight train launched in August 2025 covers over 8,000 kilometers in just 10 days, enabling the efficient "hub to hub" direct delivery between China and foreign countries. A major land corridor traversing Eurasia is rapidly extending across the Northeast China.
