A train departed Hohhot East Railway Station for Ulanqab on April 24, with the task of testing and debugging the newly-laid Hohhot-Zhangjiakou high-speed rail line.

With a speed of 120 kilometer per hour, the train mainly tested facility functions including track geometries, track circuits, transponders, and catenary parameters.

The test provided valuable data for the future running of the Hohhot-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway, according to the Hohhot railway department.
