A China-Europe freight train carrying Kazakh wheat arrived at the China-Kazakhstan Lianyungang Logistics Cooperation Base after crossing the Eurasian continent on Friday, marking a major milestone for international rail links.
With this delivery, the total number of freight trains operated through Lianyungang has exceeded 7,000 trips. The grain was shipped via a seamless sea-rail intermodal route through Lianyungang, east China's Jiangsu Province, reaching Southeast Asian markets in approximately 20 days.
This milestone underscores the growing importance of multimodal logistics hubs in connecting producers and consumers across continents. Businesses and tech innovators can tap into faster, more reliable corridors, while travelers and digital nomads benefit from a better supply network that keeps pace with global demand.
