Powered by the international logistics routes opened to Europe, Central Asia, the ASEAN, Japan and South Korea, it has not only provided services for over 140 cities in more than 40 countries, but also brought business opportunities to tens of thousands of Chinese and international enterprises. With its business expanding continuously, Zhengzhou's China Railway Express freight train service has been playing an irreplaceable role in the economic and trade exchanges between Asian and European countries.
