20-3 China extends freight train connections to Milan

Wuhan Asia-Europe Logistics Co. has launched a new extended route for freight service, from Wuhan, Hubei Province, via China’s Alataw Pass and Germany’s Duisburg, arriving in Milan within 21 or 22 days 

The first X8015 train was loaded with electronic products, auto parts and epidemic-prevention supplies. This is the 30th China-Europe freight train that has departed from Wuhan this year. In 2020, Wuhan witnessed a total of 215 China-Europe freight-train trips. The China-Europe freight-train service has remained a reliable transportation channel amid the COVID-19 outbreak across the two continents.
