The world's first desert railway ring is formed!

The reporter learned from the China National Railway Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the National Railway Group) that on June 16, the Hetian to Ruomao Railway (hereinafter referred to as the Ruo Railway) was opened for operation. The Xinjiang Railway Network further improved to form the world's first desert railway ring line -2712 kilometers long Taklama Ganan desert railway ring line.

He Ruo Railway starts from Hetian City, Xinjiang, and Ruoqian County, Bayin Guo Leng Mongolia Autonomous Prefecture in the east. It has a total length of 825 kilometers and a design speed of 120 kilometers per hour. It is a national -level single -line railway. There are 22 stations across the board, of which Hetian, Luopu, Cele, Yuquan Town, Yu Tian, ​​Minfeng, Nantun, Jinshan, and Mo, Watshi Gorge, Ruoqiang 11 stations run the passenger business, Hetian and Cele , Yu Tian, ​​Minfeng, and the Mochi, Ruoqiang 6 stations run the passenger freight business, and other stations are railway driving technology operating stations.

Since the construction of the construction in December 2018, the National Railway Group has organized participating units to adopt effective and effective measures to overcome difficulties according to the desert geological characteristics to ensure that the project is completed as scheduled. For the reality of the construction and concrete maintenance along the line, the 434 bridge pier uses the pier prefabricated assembly technology to complete the prefabricated component processing in the factory in advance, and then assembled at the scene to effectively overcome the impact of water shortage on the progress of construction; for some districts, in some districts Duan Fengsha and dynamic migration of the dunes are easy to bury the line. It adopts the five -seater of the sand bridge with a total length of 49.7 kilometers in a bridge to allow the wind sand to pass through the bridge, which greatly reduces the threat of the wind sand on the line; The construction concept of "deserted railway, sand control must be done first", simultaneously promotes the construction of wind and sand protection projects, and builds a total of 50 million square meters of grass square meters. It is planted in shrubs such as shuttle, red willows, sea buckthorn and other shrubs. The green barrier of the road.

Before the project was opened, the National Railway Group strictly strictly regulations and standards, carefully organized the inspection and acceptance and safety assessment of the professional equipment of the Ruo Railway, and comprehensively optimized the rail status, train control, and communication signal system. At present, the project fully meets the requirements of the safe and stable operation of passenger and cargo trains, and has the operating conditions.

After the operation of the railway is opened, the railway department will arrange 2 pass passenger trains. The passenger trains along the route can reach Ruoqiang, Korla, Urumqi and other places. Hill 50 minutes, 24 hours and 23 minutes.

At the same time, as a convenient logistics channel, and Ruo Ran will arrange 8 columns of cargo trains, cotton, walnuts, red dates, and minerals along the route can reach the mainland through the railway.

The Ruo Railway and the Golmud to the Korla Railway Ruoqiang to the Korla section, the South Railway Corler to Kashgar section, and Kashgar to the Temple section together form the 2712 kilometers of the Takhara Magnatan Desert Railway. This is also the world's first desert railway ring line. The ring line passes five prefectures, including Xinjiang Bayin Guo Leng Mongolia Autonomous Prefecture, Aksu region, Kizilu Cirkiz Autonomous Prefecture, Kashgar area, and Hetian area, covering tens of millions of people in the southern Xinjiang area. The completion of this railway has ended the history of Luopu, Cele, Yu Tian, ​​Minfeng and other counties and Bayin Guo Leng Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture. The construction of the western frontier railway network is greatly facilitated to travel and transportation of the people of all ethnic groups along the route. It has driven the development of resources along the line. It is of great significance to maintain national unity, consolidate the defense of the frontier, and help rural revitalization.
