Migrant workers in Shanghai, after a year-long hard work in cities, began to return
home for the traditional family reunion Spring Festival on special trains arranged
for them. China's passenger flow will hit 2 billion trips during the 2006
Spring Festival holiday starting from the middle of next month,
authorities predicted. Among them, 1.8 billion trips are
expected to use the roads, 144 million the railways, and 15 million
by air. [Newsphoto] |
