Continuous heavy rain hit Mianyang in Southwest China's Sichuan province on Thursday. To resist the flood and prevent the bridge on the Fujiang River from being damaged, two heavy-duty cargo trains stayed on the bridge for six hours.
The train drivers were 26-year-old Zhang Qiang and 28-year-old Chen Long. With torrential rain, flooding and an unstable bridge beam, the task was extremely dangerous. It was a severe test of the drivers' professional and psychological capabilities.
"The rising flood waters were around the train when I drove it to the bridge. I was under great pressure but didn't have time to be scared. All I wanted was to take control of the train and keep the bridge safe," one driver said.
