Equipped with recreational facilities, including massage chairs, mahjong machines, and KTV rooms, the train carried 114 passengers through a blanket of snow in the Qinling Mountains. Passengers enjoyed the train’s comfortable services and the scenery from its windows. After arriving at the railway station in the Qinling Mountains, they can enjoy the snowy scenery, make snowmen and have snowball fights.

The launch of the train service can do a great deal to boost the development of the province’s tourism industry.
