突破6500车，湖南中老班列跑出外贸加速度

10月16日凌晨，一列满载化肥、农机、电子产品的集装箱中老班列从湖南怀化开出，经磨憨口岸，驶向老挝万象。随着本趟班列发出，湖南中老班列发车数突破6500车，今年较去年同期增长近62.1%。

On the early morning of October 16, a freight train loaded with fertilizers, agricultural machinery and electronic products departed from Hunan’s Huaihua and headed towards Vientiane, Laos through the Mohan Port. With the launch of this train, the number of China-Laos trains departing from Hunan has exceeded 6,500, marking an increase of nearly 62.1% compared to the same period last year.

湖南铁路部门将加快构建“通道+枢纽+网络”的现代物流体系，不断强化中老班列与各物流链网的无缝衔接，为湖南地区经济发展提供助力。

The Hunan railway department will accelerate the construction of a modern logistics system featuring a "channel+hub+network" model, continuously strengthen the seamless connection between the China-Laos trains and other logistics chains, and provide a boost to the economic development of Hunan.
