The last peak of this year's Spring Festival travel rush is expected to arrive in the next few days as migrant workers and students return from family visits to study and work, railway authorities forecast.

The four railway stations in Beijing have already seen more passenger arrivals prior to and after the Lantern Festival, which fell on Feb 24, and more passengers, mostly college students and migrant workers, could bring a renewed travel peak in the next few days, the Beijing Evening News quoted railway authorities as saying.

More than 380,000 passengers returned from the holiday to Beijing over the weekend, most of which were short-trip passengers.

The Ministry of Railways expected the Spring Festival Travel rush ending on March 6.
