China Focus: China-Europe freight train adds new route to Belgium

One of the containers on the China Railway Express (Yiwu-Liege) eWTP-Cainiao, a new China-Europe freight train service, is lifted by a gantry crane at Yiwu West Railway Station in Yiwu, east China's Zhejiang Province, Oct. 9, 2019. The eastern Chinese city of Yiwu, home to the world's leading small commodities market, opened a new freight train route to Belgium's Liege on Wednesday. Loaded with 82 standard containers of commodities, the train is projected to arrive in Liege in about 20 days and runs twice a week. The new service has brought the total China-Europe train routes originating from Yiwu to 11, connecting the city with 37 countries and regions across Eurasia. (Xinhua/Huang Zongzhi)
