Wuhan high-speed railway schematic map Jing Chu network news (Chu Tian Jin Pao) (reporter Zhu Ansiang Meidain correspondent High-speed railway) editor's note: The High-profile Wuhan to be opened yesterday 4 days, its fares and attendance in the open before the strong attention. Yesterday, the reporter on-site interview found that the comprehensive day ticket sales, Wu Guang Wuhan originating from the average attendance less than 40%. What is the reason for this long-awaited Shinkansen "cold"?　　　　The reporter conducted a visit. "Status" morning and evening Bangautie empty yesterday around 2:55 P.M., reporters in Wuhan station ticket hall See, every 10 minutes to refresh the ticket balance large screen display, docked on the platform will be at 15:30 on the departure of the G1045 train, first-class ticket left 111, second-class tickets left 716, in accordance with the double 8 carriages　　, 1200 seats calculation, sales tickets around 350, attendance 30% or so. Reporter statistics found that the same day will be the start of the 9 train trains, in addition to 14 o'clock, 17:20 and 18 o'clock a total of three train ticket balance less, leaving 410 left, the remaining 5 train, the remaining tickets in 800-1100 Zhang. The highest sales tickets of the three train, attendance at about 60%, the rest of the attendance in 30% below.　　The average guest rate is less than 40% for the whole day of ticket sales yesterday.　　The reporter noted that every morning before 8 o'clock in the 3 and 6 o'clock in the evening 3 trips, a total of 6 high-speed train tickets remaining the most, the rest is more than 1000, double 8 carriages almost empty.　　In this respect, the Wuhan Railway Bureau related People low-key said, now Wuhan only opened 4 days, the number of tourists is not good statistics.　　　　Just returned from Guangzhou passengers thanked Lady told reporters: 27th afternoon when she went to Guangzhou, the car on the passenger concentrated in 3 carriages, the number of people around 300, come back to be more obvious. "Reason" in the off-season car more people less votes expensive to this, industry insiders said, Wuhan just opened the line, now analysis of the reasons for the high and low attendance is still too early.　　However, from the first four days, the reason why it is not enough fire, many reasons. First, it coincides with the off-season of railway passenger transport. December is nearing the end of the season, at this time to work in the Pearl River Delta is very few people, is the traditional off-season for the South Railway passenger transport. Not only high-speed rail, even to the Pearl River Delta, attendance is not high. With the spring festival approaching, railway passenger transport will be again tense up, and the plane ticket will reduce discounts and even restore the original price, when the high speed rail attendance should be increased.　　At the same time, there are many people with fewer cars, high-speed rail south has reached 21 times/day. The second is the restriction of high ticket price. Since the high-speed rail line, many people think that the fares are too high, from Wuhan to Guangzhou, a first-class fare of 749 yuan, second-class fares 469 yuan. Even a 3000-dollar wage earner has to spend one weeks ' wages. And also to Guangzhou's express hard sleeper fares at 240 yuan leftOn the right, most of it is the overnight train, the passengers can get to Guangzhou after a night's sleep.　　If it is not reimbursable or urgent, many travellers may be unwilling to pay for their own pockets. Third, Wuhan station is currently the surrounding facilities are not perfect, especially in Hanyang, Hankou passengers, basically have to transfer to a trip. Even from Xu Dozen to Wuhan station, also need 25 yuan.　　A large part of the reason why many passengers have the idea of "abandoning aircraft" to high-speed rail is that they think that it takes less time and more convenience to take Gao Tiebi by plane, but "reality" will undoubtedly discourage their enthusiasm. Four is the high-speed rail has just opened, the market needs a long time to nurture. With the public familiar with the Wuhan station and high-speed rail, the passenger flow will increase.　　　　And later, Shanghai, Beijing, Xi ' an direction to the Han train will be docked in Wuhan station, is expected to increase the number of passengers to transfer to high-speed rail.　　"Comparison" Shanghai Shiyan direction of the bullet train in addition to the newly opened high-speed rail, the current Hankou railway station and Wuchang train originated from the more than 10 train.　　According to railway sources, in addition to Qingdao and 8 o'clock in the morning to Beijing, the initial train attendance is relatively low, other cars are very popular, especially to the Hefei-Nanjing-Shanghai-oriented motor vehicles, in the departure of the attendance of more than 90%, the other direction of the train can also reach full. Why are the trains in these directions so hot?　　The reporter interviewed a number of passengers on the train to Shanghai, Shiyan direction, they said, mainly because of these direction of the train, speed, reasonable fares, convenient ride, overall value for money. Speaking of Wuhan, most of the passengers interviewed thought that 3 hours were really fast, but the fares were higher.　　　　If the second-class ticket fares between 300 yuan-400 yuan can withstand.　　"Verify" the ticket price is difficult before the end of the Spring Festival. Since the railway is off season, can the high-speed rail fare concessions to attract passengers? In this respect, a railway personage told the reporter, because the Wuhan ticket price is announced before the opening, plus the Spring Festival is approaching, the fares will not be discounted before the end of the Spring Festival. In order to implement flexible fares, the local railway departments in Wuhan and Guangzhou can not be decided, the Ministry of Railways approved to implement.
