On August 7, 2026, as a train loaded with photovoltaic modules and new energy vehicles slowly departed from Yiwu West Station, the export container volume of the Yixin Europe China Europe freight train officially exceeded 100000 TEUs, breaking the record for the same period in previous years. From daily necessities, textiles, shoes, and hats as the main products in the past, to high-end intelligent manufacturing products such as photovoltaic energy storage modules, smart home appliances, precision machine tools, new energy vehicles, and core components gradually becoming the main export force, the cargo categories of the Yixin Europe China Europe freight train are undergoing a profound iterative upgrade.

Export volume hits new high again

As of August 7, 2026, the export containers of the Yixin Europe China Europe freight train exceeded 100000 TEUs in 2026, setting a new record for the same period in previous years and maintaining its position as the top tier of China Europe freight train operation scale. Behind the impressive increment, the structure of train goods is moving towards excellence and novelty. Compared to previous years' product structure mainly consisting of daily necessities, textiles, shoes, and hats, high-end smart manufacturing products such as photovoltaic energy storage modules, smart home appliances, precision machine tools, new energy vehicles, and core components will gradually become the main export products in 2026, with significant improvements in industrial adaptability and product added value.

Upgrade of multimodal transport system

Since 2026, the Yixin Europe China Europe freight train has continued to enrich the multimodal transport system, and diversified transport modes such as export rail public transport, China Europe freight train plus sea rail transport have been fully implemented and normalized. The new model effectively integrates the advantages of long-distance railway, large capacity, and strong stability with the low sea freight and flexible road transportation, and constructs a multidimensional and three-dimensional cross-border logistics network, continuously amplifying the agglomeration effect and radiation efficiency of freight trains. At present, the train has normalized and stabilized the operation of 27 international routes, reaching more than 160 cities in over 50 countries and regions on the Eurasian continent.

Smart supervision safeguards and protects

Hangzhou Customs continues to deeply practice the development experience of Yiwu, taking digital reform as the starting point, relying on the new generation of large customs clearance platform, improving the all-weather automatic customs transfer mechanism, building a smart supervision system for real-time comparison and closed-loop control of logistics data, customs declaration data, and customs transfer data, promoting the interconnection, sharing and sharing of data among customs, railways, and stations, and improving the efficiency of port clearance and comprehensive operation. In the next step, as the supporting facilities of the assembly center continue to improve and the regulatory services continue to optimize, Yixin Europe Europe Europe Express will continue to expand and improve the quality, help Zhejiang deeply integrate into the joint construction of the the Belt and Road, and inject momentum into the high-quality development of regional cross-border trade.Editor/Gao Xue
