At 8:34 on February 17, a freight train RD002 carrying 5000 tons of electric coal arrived at Hohhot West Station. Since then, the direct transportation of electric coal between Jialanying and Hohhot West has been realized. According to reports, Hohhot Thermal Power Plant is located in Huimin District of Hohhot City, with an annual coal consumption of 3.3 million tons. In 2011, 550,000 tons of electric coal were transported via the Huizhun Railway, and then transferred by car from Jialanying Station on the Huizhun Line to the power plant. Other coals were all transported by truck to the power plant via the Huizhun Line. Due to the large volume of coal transported by truck, many social problems have arisen, reliability cannot be guaranteed, and it is easy to cause traffic accidents. Therefore, as soon as possible to start the direct transportation business between Jialanying Station on the Huizhun Line and Hohhot West Station has become a common wish of the Northern Electric Power Fuel Company, Hohhot Thermal Power Plant and the staff and villagers of Jialanying Village in Taigemumu Township. In view of the above situation, Huhhot Railway Bureau specially organized relevant departments and units for on-site research, held special meetings many times to study the problems of each link of electric coal transportation of Hohhot Thermal Power Plant, and formulated a transportation organization plan to ensure the realization of direct transportation of electric coal between Jialanying and Hohhot West.
