On the afternoon of December 13th, 82 TEU imported containers from ports such as Jiaxing, Taizhou, and Wenzhou landed in the Beilun Port Area of Zhoushan Port in Ningbo, and after completing the assembly at the Beilun Port Station of the railway within the port area, they boarded the Rongyong Sea Railway and departed for Chengdu. At that time, after the batch of containers arrives in Chengdu, they will take the China Europe International Train (Chengdu Rong Europe) and ship to Malashevich, Poland. This marks the official opening of the sea rail intermodal transportation channel of Ningbo Zhoushan Port, which includes the "Chengdu Ningbo Sea Rail Express+Chengdu Europe International Express". It will further assist Ningbo Zhoushan Port in building a domestic major circulation strategic node and a domestic and international dual circulation strategic hub.

It is understood that this Chengdu Ningbo sea rail train is the first to connect with the Chengdu Europe international intermodal train in the "import+domestic support+sea rail" mode. This model can fully leverage the advantages of Ningbo Zhoushan Port as the largest port and Chengdu as a bridgehead connecting the Pan European and Pan Asian international trade channel. By utilizing the "bridge" role of the Chengdu Ningbo sea rail train connecting the "Belt" and "Road", it can build a new logistics model, new channel, and new business model in the southwest region, and achieve two-way connectivity and coordinated development of the inland and coastal areas. At the same time, this train provides customers with logistics solutions that reduce costs and increase efficiency, allowing them to enjoy lower logistics costs and faster channel services.

To ensure the smooth opening of this channel, the sea rail intermodal transportation business team of Ningbo Port Railway Co., Ltd., based on the deployment arrangements of Zhejiang Port Group, Ningbo Zhoushan Port Group, and Ningbo Zhoushan Port Co., Ltd., with strong support from relevant units and enterprises, focused on advantageous resources such as railways, shipping, and large cargo owners, developed and optimized logistics plans, and successfully attracted Japan, South Korea The transit container sources in Australia and the Yangtze River Delta region are sent to Chengdu via the Chengdu Ningbo Express and connected to the Chengdu Europe Express after assembling at the Zhoushan Port in Ningbo.
