Yichang–Wanzhou Railway Project

Accommodating double-stack containers is a national standard for new railway lines, but double-stack containers have just started to be used in limited lines in the PRC. Given the small quantity of freight traffic on the YWR, double-stack containers are unlikely to be used for the time being. Although this is not a project-level issue, there is a need to review whether this requirement is applied to all new railway lines, or to follow-up the future utilization plan for double-stack containers.
