Northwest China's Shaanxi establishes new rail hub with direct connections to Europe_我的网站
A | (ECNS) -- The first direct China-Europe Railway Express freight train departed from Baoji in northwest China’s Shaanxi Province on Tuesday, headed for Nizhny Novgorod of Russia. The launch makes Baoji as the province’s second logistics hub with direct rail links to Europe, following the provincial capital, Xi’an. Carrying 55 containers of locally manufactured auto parts, including engines, chassis, and tires, valued at over 7.12 million yuan (about $1 million), the train will travel via the Alashankou port in Xinjiang to reach a Russian automotive plant. The new direct route offers a faster and safer alternative to traditional maritime shipping. The rail journey takes just 15 to 18 days, compared with over 40 days by sea. It also minimizes cargo damage by protecting high-precision parts from sea moisture and avoiding multiple transfers at coastal ports. Previously, Baoji only received inbound European trains and operated Central Asia routes. The inaugural direct freight train from Baoji to Europe successfully fills the city’ gap for lacking local outbound trains to Europe. In 2025, Baoji has processed 742 European and Central Asian trains, marking a 151.3% year-on-year increase.

Located in southwest China, Yunnan is rich in wild mushroom resources, thanks to its favorable climate and diverse natural environment. The industry has become an important source of income for local communities. The matsutake sector alone benefits more than 20,000 households, providing each family with an additional annual income of 30,000 to 50,000 yuan (about $4,150 to $6,920). Guo Jinyun, general manager of Bowen Food Co., Ltd. in Shangri-La, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, said the company has expanded into higher-value, deep-processed mushroom products. Local customs authorities have also introduced measures to strengthen quality control and speed up customs clearance, including a dedicated green channel and 24/7 appointment-based inspection services. Yang Xiao from Shangri-La Customs said customs officers regularly provide one-on-one guidance to local farmers on tariff reductions, certificate applications and other relevant policies.
