洛阳：中亚班列5年间开行145列 运送“河南造”17万多吨

 

The 31st China Railway Express freight train dispatched by Dongfanghong (Luoyang) International Land Port this year departed Luoyang city of Henan province in Central China on May 17 for Central Asia directly carrying 100 TEUs or 1,042 tons of various Henan-made goods worth over 2.10 million yuan, including refractory materials, mechanical equipment, photovoltaic components, home building materials, etc.

5月17日，东方红（洛阳）国际陆港今年开行的第31列中欧班列（中豫号）国际货运班列缓缓驶出，将从洛阳直达中亚五国。该趟班列装载着100个标箱、总重1042吨的耐火材料、机械设备、光伏配件、家居建材等各式“河南造”，货值210余万美元。

 

Dongfanghong (Luoyang) International Land Port has handled a total of 10,559 TEUs of cargo over the past four months, a 26 percent increase from the previous year. Due to the round-trip service to Central Asia, it is not surprising that the number of China Railway Express freight train trips from Luoyang has reached a record high.

今年前4个月，东方红（洛阳）国际陆港累计完成集装箱吞吐量10559标箱，同比增长26%。随着中亚回程线路的常态化运营，洛阳中豫号班列开行量屡创新高，今年以来开行量同比增长55%。

 

In recent years, economic and commercial ties between China and the five Central Asian nations have grown closer. China's bilateral trade with five Central Asian nations reached a record high of $70.2 billion in 2022, a 40 percent increase from the previous year.

近年来，中国与中亚五国经贸往来日益密切。数据显示，2022年，中国与中亚五国双边贸易额达到702亿美元，同比增长约40%，创历史新高。

 

According to Huang Xiaokang, general manager of China YTO Group Logistics Company who is the pioneer and witness of the round trip service between Luoyang and Central Asia, in recent years, by taking advantage of Luoyang as an important city along the Belt and Road route and actively participating in the Belt and Road construction, China YTO Group Logistics Company has transported more than 170 thousand tons of Henan-made goods worth 430 million US dollars to Central Asia during the 145 freight services over the past 5 years. "Luoyang's China Railway Express freight trains have provided service to almost 100 enterprises, providing a convenient and efficient export channel for Luoyang by sending local high-quality products to the five Central Asian countries," said Huang Xiaokang.

作为开启洛阳至中亚地区往返通道的首创者和亲历者，中国一拖物流公司总经理黄晓康介绍，近年来，中国一拖物流公司立足自身资源，充分发挥洛阳作为“一带一路”重要节点城市优势，积极融入“一带一路”建设，自开行首趟中亚班列以来，5年间共开行145列，运送“河南造”17万多吨，货值4.3亿美元。“洛阳中豫号班列源源不断地将本地的优质产品发往中亚五国，成功服务近百家企业，为洛阳地区提供了一条便捷高效的出口通道。”黄晓康说。（中文来源/河南日报 编译/杨佳欣 审校/李文竞）
