CHINA-SICHUAN-QINGHAI RAILWAY-SECTION-OPERATION (CN)
(231128) -- MAOXIAN, Nov. 28, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This aerial photo taken on Nov. 13, 2023 shows a high-speed passenger train making a stop at Zhenjiangguan railway station in southwest China's Sichuan Province. A 238-km section of the Sichuan-Qinghai railway in western China became operational on Tuesday after 12 years of construction. The railway crosses the rugged, earthquake-prone plateau region in northwest Sichuan, and takes a detour to avoid disturbing the Giant Panda National Park. The Sichuan-Qinghai railway will eventually stretch northwestward to Xining, the capital city of Qinghai Province. Upon completion of the whole project, the new rail line will connect the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the highest plateau in the world, into the massive high-speed transport network of China, which sets to put the region's development on fast track.
