Across China: Hubei

Marshalling yard opens

The Wuhan North Marshalling Yard, one of the largest in Asia, started operations in central China's Hubei province on Monday.

Nearly 10,000 rail freight cars will be diverted to the yard every day instead of traveling across the Wuhan city center via the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. The yard is capable of separating and classifying 22,000 cars daily from Jingguang line, Hewu line and other trunk routs.
