NETWORK AND SCHEDULES

Nine terminals, three corridors, one timetable

We hold contracted capacity at nine Chinese rail terminals and run scheduled block trains to destinations across Europe. Transit below is for the Xi'an express; other origins are quoted individually.

Corridors

Three routes running in parallel

Built on the Silk Road international corridor, linking Chinese manufacturing hubs with core European distribution centres. We collect cargo anywhere in China.

Western corridor

Via Alashankou / Khorgos

Through Kazakhstan, Russia and Belarus into Europe. The highest-capacity trunk route, and the one our Xi'an express uses.

Central corridor

Via Erenhot

North through Mongolia onto the Trans-Siberian line, suited to north and north-east China origins.

Eastern corridor

Via Manzhouli

Serving north-east and east China cargo, connecting onward to Europe.

Contracted origin terminals, nine in total

Pinghu South sits inside Shenzhen, which is what lets us take ocean cargo and put it on a train without moving it across the country first.
