en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 20, the Hebei-Xinjiang multimodal transport train service from Shijiazhuang to Kashgar departed from the railway dedicated line of Shijiazhuang Highway and Bridge Construction Group Co., Ltd. in Hebei Province, marking the official operation of a railway logistics corridor directly connecting Hebei Province to southern Xinjiang.

The newly launched train adopts an integrated "hub-hub-node" transport model, with cargo dispatched from the Urumqi hub in full trains to Kashgar, replacing the previous model where goods from Hebei to southern Xinjiang had to be transferred in Urumqi and then transported by road. This adjustment reduces overall logistics costs, shortens total transit time, and fills the gap in direct railway freight train services from Hebei to southern Xinjiang. Rail freight services have thus been enhanced.

Wei Zhuomin, General Manager of Hebei Xinjiang Train Transportation Co., Ltd., stated that the launch of this service builds a convenient bridge for industrial collaboration and economic exchanges between the two regions, while also providing logistical support for the deepening of paired assistance to Xinjiang.

According to reports, the Hebei-Xinjiang train began trial operations on November 30, 2025, and was officially incorporated into the national railway schedule in April 2026, operating with fixed train numbers, fixed routes, and fixed schedules. As of the inaugural day of this Kashgar special service, the Hebei-Xinjiang train had operated a total of 49 trips, transporting 5,078 standard containers.
