Yuxi and
Mengzi Raiload
|
Another section of the planned pan-Asian railway network has
been completed after seven years of construction, linking Yuxi and
Mengzi in China's south-west Yunnan province.
Xinhua news agency reported that the 141km railway is part of
the eastern line of the network and became operational last Saturday,
with a designed maximum speed of 120km/h.
The eastern line is also made up of the already operational
Kunming-Yuxi railway and the Mengzi-Hekou connection that is still under
construction, said Xinhua.
Hekou shares a border with Vietnam and will link both countries when it becomes operational at the end of next year.
The international rail project also consists of central and western
lines, and will run from Beijing to Singapore when completed.
