Data shows that CRE trains now reach 227 cities in 25 European countries and connect over 100 cities in 11 Asian countries, essentially covering the entire Eurasian continent and extending their reach globally.
The network of CRE train routes is increasingly sophisticated, not only linking China with European countries but also connecting East and Southeast Asian nations like South Korea, Japan and Vietnam through sea-rail intermodal transport and the China-Laos Railway. According to Ye Junchen, General Manager of Western Post Europe, the CRE trains have evolved beyond the "point-to-point" connections of air and sea transport, creating a far-reaching trade service network.
