Q: How many people stranded in Hubei need to go back to Beijing?

A: There are nearly 200,000 people stranded in Hubei who need to return to Beijing. We are making plans under the coordination of China State Railway Group. Today, two trains (G488 and G4838) were open to take them back. G488 is the first train heading for Beijing from Hubei after the lockdown. The Beijing government has worked with Hubei to run such trains since we need to get consent from Beijing for these passengers' return and make sure they are healthy. Today's return went well. It is the first day that we arranged come-back trains to Beijing, and there will be more in the following days.
