On the same day, the fully loaded X8155 CRE train departed from Xi’anguojigang Railway Station bound for Hamburg, Germany. The CRE train (Xi’an) has been in operation for ten years since its inaugural journey on November 28, 2013. Over the past decade, the CRE train (Xi’an) has accumulated 20,897 trips, accounting for approximately one-fourth of the total trips made by CRE trains nationwide. Throughout these ten years, this “steel camel caravan” has tirelessly injected strong impetus into the high-quality construction of the “Belt and Road” Initiative.
