The ticket prices range from 1 yuan to 23.5 yuan(about 0.15-3.59 U.S. dollars), which have not been raised in 26 years. The trains run through the Wuling Mountains. Thanks to them, villagers can not only carry fruits, vegetables and other local products out for sale, but also meet the outside world. Although China's railway system has made great progress in recent years, many similar railway lines remain unchanged to meet the special needs of people in remote areas. (Xinhua)
