Performers sing on the first high-speed passenger train C6008 on a section of the Sichuan-Qinghai railway, Nov. 28, 2023. A 238-km section of the Sichuan-Qinghai railway in western China became operational on Tuesday after 12 years of construction.
The railway crosses the rugged, earthquake-prone plateau region in northwest Sichuan, and takes a detour to avoid disturbing the Giant Panda National Park. The Sichuan-Qinghai railway will eventually stretch northwestward to Xining, the capital city of Qinghai Province. Upon completion of the whole project, the new rail line will connect the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the highest plateau in the world, into the massive high-speed transport network of China, which sets to put the region’s development on fast track.

It consists of one underwater tunnel, two bridges and two artificial islands, making it one of the most challenging cross-sea cluster projects in the world. (Xinhua/Deng Hua)
