As the domestic economy continues to improve, the demand for transporting bulk goods such as coal and chemicals in Xinjiang has been increasing. CR-Urumqi has proactively aligned with enterprise transportation needs, deepened transportation organization reforms, and adopted passenger-train-style methods, including fixed loading and unloading stations, routes, train numbers, and arrival and departure times. These measures have allowed for the operation of coal circulation trains between coal production areas and downstream enterprises, providing companies with fast, punctual and stable transportation capacity.
Currently, the passenger-train-style coal circulation trains originate from the Zhundong and Kubai coal production areas, transporting approximately 78,000 tons of coal daily. This effectively meets the production needs of 26 downstream coal enterprises in areas such as Shihezi, Changji, Kuitun, Aksu and Kashgar.
