Railway departments in various regions have coordinated the use of high-speed rail and normal-speed resources, made every effort to increase transport capacity, promptly opened additional passenger trains on popular line sections, implemented measures to facilitate and benefit the people, and strive to meet the return travel needs of passengers.

Urumqi Bureau Group Company actively responded to heavy snowfall and windy weather, dynamically adjusted the operation plan of some passenger trains on Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway and Nanjiang Railway, and took preventive measures such as speed reduction and suspension to proactively avoid safety risks; it quickly established 37 snow-clearing teams , a total of more than 2,100 people were dispatched to remove ice and snow overnight to ensure the safe and smooth flow of the railway arteries.
The railway department reminds passengers that the railway has entered the peak of return passenger flow. Please pay attention to weather changes and travel service information in a timely manner and arrange your travel reasonably. In order to ensure the safety of train operation, railway vehicles have certain passenger capacity restrictions. High-speed rail trains that operate safely, at high speeds and smoothly have stricter passenger capacity restrictions. If a large number of passengers who purchase short-distance tickets do not get off the train when they arrive at the station, it will cause The overcrowding of carriages seriously affects the normal transportation order and endangers the safety of train operations. Railway staff will also persuade passengers who “buy short and take long” to get off. To this end, the railway department reminds passengers to strictly follow the arrival and departure stations according to their tickets and jointly maintain good riding order.
