Over the past six years, not only has the frequency and capacity of China's freight trains increased, but the cargo they carry has also changed.

In the early days, containers were mainly filled with electronic devices made in China, such as laptops and cellphones, but today, products range from plants to shoes to Christmas decorations. Individuals can even rent space to ship their personal belongings when they move home.

As the domestic consumer market has grown, more trains are also returning to Chinese cities loaded with European goods.

"More than 1,000 kinds of small commodities, from clothes to Christmas gifts, ride the freight train from Yiwu to Europe," said Liu Xilin, who runs the Shanghai office of China Railway Container Transport Corp.

Yiwu is the world's largest hub for small commodities, manufacturing about 1.8 million various kinds of goods, from air conditioners and power tools to hats and auto parts.

Eight rail freight routes connect the city with destinations across Eurasia, including London, which in January became the westernmost point of the CR Express network. The inaugural service transported daily supplies, clothes, suitcases, bags and fabric to the British capital, and returned loaded with maternity products, soft drinks and vitamins.

"Since the London service started, my cellphone has not stopped ringing with calls from customers in China and abroad," said Fang Xudong at Yiwu Timex Industrial Investment, which helps companies use CR Express services.

Last year, 120 trains left Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province, bound for Europe, and 102 trains returned carrying goods.

"Red wine from Bordeaux, milk and edible oil from Belarus, and flour from Russia were transported on those freight trains to Wuhan," said Wu Guangming, president of Wuhan Asia-Europe Logistics. "Those products were stored in customized refrigerated containers and sold at a reasonable price, allowing ordinary people to enjoy the benefits of the Belt and Road Initiative."

His company rented five foreign-designed refrigerated containers last year, but Wu said this year it will use a domestically developed container. "Technology can support international trade and meet more customers' requirements," he added.

The CR Express management office in Chengdu has pledged to improve the efficiency of its services and is working with third-party companies to better cater to clients' demands.

"Customers can now talk directly with account managers who coordinate the entire procedure, including customs clearance and storage," said Zheng Shuangli, marketing director at Chengdu Inland Port Operation Co, a logistics agency.

"Clients no longer need go through all procedures alone," she added.
