A new freight train service between Caofeidian Port in Hebei Province, North China and Ulan Bator, capital of Mongolia, was launched at the end of March.
Departing from Caofeidian Port, a train loaded with freight consisting of electrical appliances, furniture and raw materials travels via Erenhot Port in north China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and finally arrive in Ulan Bator.
“This was the first international freight train service launched in Tangshan City,” said Wang Kesheng, president of Caofeidian Port Group Incorporation.
He said freight loads consisting of steel products and construction materials produced in Tangshan would be exported to Mongolia and European countries through the new route.
