The reporter learned from China Railway Group that railway lines affected by floods in Northeast and North China are gradually being reopened, and trains in many areas are resuming operation.
The Wuchang, Shangzhi and other places in Heilongjiang Province have continued to rain for many days, and the precipitation once exceeded the historical extreme value. Several rivers on the right bank of the Songhua River tributaries exceeded the warning water level. The rainstorm and flood caused many dangerous situations such as embankment emptying, cutting slope collapse, etc. on the Binsui railway line from Harbin to Suihua.
Yang Lichao, the director of the first workshop for major repair of switches in Harbin Engineering Machinery Section: At that time, the water level had already crossed the hook machine track, which was one meter to 1.5 meters higher than the current water level. The roadbed of the up and down lines had already been completely washed away.
China Railway Harbin Bureau immediately launched a flood prevention plan, with over 4600 railway workers urgently mobilized and mobilized nearly 200 large-scale repair machinery and locomotives to carry out centralized repairs on railway lines and equipment.
After 96 hours of continuous fighting, China Railway Harbin Bureau has successfully secured access to all 24 dangerous sections of the Binsui Railway, and passenger trains have resumed normal operation.
The Fengsha Railway, which is the most severely damaged railway line in the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region, connecting Fengtai in Beijing and Shacheng in Hebei, has been through 71 hours of continuous fighting organized by the Beijing Railway Bureau with over 5000 employees. Currently, the railway line has been successfully completed and freight trains have been put into operation.
The starting stations of the Beijing Guangzhou Railway, including Beijing West Station and Beijing Fengtai Station, still have 41 passenger trains suspended today, mainly in the directions of Handan, Baotou, and Yinchuan. The station reminds passengers that passengers who have purchased tickets for discontinued trains can apply for a full refund within 30 days.
In the section of the National Railway Zhengzhou Bureau under the jurisdiction of the Beijing Guangzhou Railway, most trains that were once restricted in speed have resumed normal operation. Major stations have dynamically opened ticket sales service windows, dispatched more staff, provided inquiry and guidance services, and ensured the smooth travel of passengers to the greatest extent possible.
