URUMQI, Nov. 27 (Xinhua) -- A freight train, loaded with daily necessities, vehicle parts and other goods, on Wednesday departed from the Alashankou Port in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, heading for Malaszewicze, Poland.
This marks that the total number of China-Europe freight train trips handled by the Alashankou Port, also known as Alataw Pass, has exceeded 7,000 in 2025, according to the port.
This year, the port's customs have streamlined clearance procedures so that inbound and outbound cargos now move faster. Additionally, more and more products from the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta have been transported to Central Asian and European markets via the China-Europe freight train service.
Currently, 128 China-Europe freight train routes pass through this port, covering 27 Chinese provincial-level regions and reaching 21 countries including Germany and Poland. These trains carry over 200 categories of goods, ranging from vehicles and vehicle parts to garments and electronics.
