Chapter 347: Only the train is owed

In the northwest corner of Baotou city, there is a huge construction site, this huge building under construction, is the future Baotou Railway Station, from more than 2 months ago, began to build, built at the speed of Baotou, until now has not been completely completed, the reason is because of Yang Yuanzhao's foresight.

Baotou railway station area is huge, did not go deep into the industrial zone of Baotou and the previous urban area, is a corner of the industrial zone, drew a 5 square kilometers of land, including a variety of overpasses including various supporting projects, just say that the square of the whole station, there are 2 square kilometers so big, tall waiting building, a total of four floors of waiting building, with more than 12 waiting rooms, and the railway in the station, guaranteed to have 12 platforms and 6 strands, just the railway strands have as many as 18, A long column was sent out, covering a huge area.

Seeing the Beijing West Railway Station in the future, Yang Yuanzhao knows very well that in densely populated China, how much role the railway will have, the future of Baotou is a heavy industry base and industrial center, once it is thoroughly developed, it can definitely be called the heart of China in this time and space, in this case, it is necessary to arrange it in advance, otherwise, at most, a few years at most, with the strength of Baotou really showing, the railway station will form a bottleneck, or need to be demolished and rebuilt, or simply choose another address, build a new station.

From the very beginning, Yang Yuanzhao decided to use the best, one by one overpasses, plus the tunnel underneath, each platform can easily let people in, = these things, all greatly exceed the current carrying capacity of Baotou, in the future, it will be empty for a long time. But. I'm afraid that even Yang Yuanzhao would not have thought of it, even with such a margin. It also made this train station a little crowded after 5 years. After 10 years, it simply fell behind, and a few years later, Baotou began a new, more massive railway station construction plan.

The railway was completely completed two or three weeks ago, and now it is being swept up intensively, and on other railways, it can already be put into operation, and time is money. In this case, the operation of one day earlier also means that the cost of recovery is one day earlier, but the reason why Baotou has not completed the project is not anything else, that is, because of the locomotive.

Baotou locomotive. In the past, the railway construction machine qì was a kind of locomotive, and with a little improvement, it could become a train. These light rail locomotives are based on Belgian locomotives, and with slight modifications, they can be made to produce a slightly more powerful locomotive than Belgian light locomotives. This is not a problem for Yang Yuanzhao at all. But in the end, Yang Yuanzhao still chose to wait. That is, half a month, a light locomotive on a heavy rail railway, isn't this a joke?

The high-speed locomotive imported from abroad has not been completely in place, at present, according to the news we know now, it has been unloaded in Wuhan, next, it will pass Guò Pinghan and Zhengtai Road, transported to Taiyuan, this is a difficult process, the base and carriage of the high-speed locomotive are all big guys, their own weight is more than 60 tons, and the locomotive is more than 200 tons, with the traffic conditions of Pinghan Road and Zhengtai Road, it is simply impossible to support these locomotives in these places to quickly pass Guò, This is the same as the previous agreement between Germany and the United States, which carried out different sub-packing, separated the different weights, and formed a carriage of only about 10 tons, which will be transported to Taiyuan and then assembled.

In the capitalist world, the rich man is the uncle, who pays a high price of 70,000 pounds in one carriage, and the locomotive is still counted separately, 200 carriages, paid more than 140 million US dollars, this money, not to mention in China, in the United States is enough to move people, these small problems, of course, are completed, the United States and Germany, and even sent special personnel to decompose the train, to ensure that after loading, through the guò railway transfer problem, and even sent a special personnel to be responsible for the final installation and commissioning work, but Yang Yuanzhao needs to pay another 2 million US dollars. The big heads are out, these small heads, of course, are not a problem, although Yang Yuanzhao hates Germany and the United States so much, but unfortunately when his skills are not as good as others, he still endures it.

Yang Yuanzhao is concerned about the construction of Baotou station, while several other stations are also in the intense construction, up to 10 days of effort, can be completed, with Baotou as the center, Datong as the hub, several railways are almost completed together, dozens of stations along the way, large and small, Datong, Suiyuan, Taiyuan, Zhangjiakou and other stations, are the most large, others, are some ordinary small stations, some similar to those stations in the seventies and eighties in China, two platforms, A larger waiting room will do.

Looking at the roaring station and inspecting the completed strands and buildings, Yang Yuanzhao's heart flew to Taiyuan, at present, more than 20 scientists from Germany and the United States, as well as a group of fitters above level 6 urgently dispatched by Baotou, they are all waiting, once the carriage is in place, they will immediately start assembling, the last step of railway construction, finally completed.

High-speed locomotive, which represents one of the manifestations of a country's comprehensive national strength, when China is still maintaining a speed of less than 40 kilometers, the powers, has reached more than 80 kilometers, the United States and Germany's trunk railway, even more than 100 kilometers, such a speed, only to form a huge logistics, the most important thing is that on the line, the steam locomotive can even run out of more than 160 kilometers of speed, is gradually approaching the fastest 180 kilometers, even in later generations, 180 kilometers, It can also be called a quasi-high-speed locomotive, steam power, in the case of high speed, the energy consumed is huge, and there will be a certain amount of waste, and the benefits brought by high speed are also huge.

The speed of road traffic represents the ability of a government and a country as a whole, and the ancient Chinese society is divided for a long time, because of traffic, at the beginning of the establishment of a dynasty, the government is clean and clean, and the huge country has been able to develop rapidly, but at the end of the dynasty, all kinds of things have accumulated to a pole, especially the deception and concealment, and the center cannot control the reality of the place, after all, when it takes a year from south to north, or even longer, many things are known. It's no longer time-sensitive.

Fast horse post road, 800 miles expedited, just an occasional thing, can not solve the problem, but high-speed trains can be solved, high-speed passenger transport at an average speed of 120 kilometers per hour, 24 hours a day, can travel 2880 kilometers, which is almost more than 5500 miles, even in the most marginal place in China, as long as the railway is built, 2 days can also be reached, which is a big country, the problem of failure and control can be solved. Such passenger transport can turn a considerable part of the area into a whole.

As in Baotou at present, the range of control is within 200 kilometers, which is achieved with the help of highways, with high-speed carriages in the case of changing horses, arriving in 5 hours, once it reaches 120 kilometers in the future, in terms of speed, the area equal to Baotou's direct control will be expanded by 3 times, and the influence of economy and politics will be expanded, and some people who will not work in Baotou will choose to come to Baotou to work, and Baotou can also put some enterprises or resources that are not particularly important. Expanding outward and setting up new factories is a great benefit for the integration and promotion of Baotou.

A city, no matter how good the development is, can not do the industry and all aspects of the thing, Baotou is the same, if it is not for Yang Yuanzhao, facing the world's vision, as well as the support of overseas channels, it will not be able to develop this process at all, the current Baotou, has developed to a similar bottleneck position, a large number of industrial backlogs, so that workers and population grow sharply, super-large-scale cities, for a country's economy, very important, but other aspects, will inevitably bring a certain pressure, Appropriately separating production capacity and reducing the cost of urban population with the help of logistics is the real way of development.

The workers were instructed to strengthen the construction, and they must strictly follow the drawings to ensure the quality of the overall construction, and then Yang Yuanzhao also inspected along the railway, and some other small stations, including the more important railway bridges and overpasses on the railway, were all within the scope of his inspection. Compared with Baotou, other local stations have been completed, even if it is Taiyuan Station and Suiyuan Station, their scale can not catch up with Baotou Station, at most there are three strands, 6 platforms, compared with the 12 platforms in Baotou, at least more than half of the difference, waiting rooms and squares and other areas are also quite small.

This circle, Yang Yuanzhao is very satisfied, it seems that in a few months, Zhan Tianyou basically threw down the construction of the railway wholeheartedly, otherwise, even if Baotou has enough machines, enough road construction machinery and workers, don't think about building these, what kind of overall planning and construction ability is required.

4,500 kilometers of railway, in fact, 1,500 kilometers, through more than a dozen cities of different sizes, in the way of lines, Mongolia, Shanxi, and even part of Shaanxi, connected, through Guò Zhengtai and Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway, but also with China's existing railway network link, which makes Baotou, finally have a relatively convenient traffic environment, whether it is to take Taiyuan, through Guò Zhengtai Railway to Pinghan Road, from the Yangtze River Estuary to the sea, or directly from the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway, from Tianjin to the sea, this is one direction, but, Restricted by the capacity of the two railways, the annual throughput is limited, but Baotou's logistics capacity and transportation capacity have been greatly improved, which is an indisputable fact.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, and now, I just don't know whether the first batch of locomotives and bottoms of high-speed trains can be transported to Taiyuan as much as possible. (To be continued......) R1292
