Recently, a train from Huai'an to Port of Ningbo was slowly moving into Beilun Port, loaded with 40 vehicles in total. Compared with the fixed trains, the whole transportation time of the railways was 27.5 hours, 12.5 hours ahead. Replacing the road logistics with railway transportation not only effectively avoids the epidemic spread caused by freight transport, but also greatly saves the logistics and time cost of enterprises.

Influenced by the recent epidemic outbreak, goods can't be transported because of the shutdown land logistics enterprises. Therefore, Huai'an Municipal Bureau of Commerce (Port Office) has brought forth new ideas and actively carried out field investigation in Huai'an port logistics and foreign trade enterprises. It has also found out the current situation of the enterprises, made research on the work plan of rail-ocean transportation, and solved problems of enterprises' goods transportation affected by the current epidemic. The joint transportation mode of rail and ocean is to transport goods to Huai'an Xingang Railway by truck, next to Ningbo Beilun Port by train, and then to foreign countries by ship. At present, Huai'an Xingang Rail-ocean Transportation operated four times a month, greatly changes the existing transportation structure to fight against the epidemic and injects new vitality into the economic and social development of the city.
