Riding on China's grand festival together

Spring Festival, the biggest celebration in the Chinese calendar, is less than a month away.

Aside from traditional festivities, one of the main aspects of the weeklong vacation is the tremendous logistical challenge of handling the country's migrant workers, office workers and college students heading back to their hometowns for family reunions.

China's railway system alone is forecast to carry 210 million passengers during the coming peak travel season, an increase of 9.5 percent over last year's figure, according to statistics from the Ministry of Railways.
