Hi! I'm the Beijing-Zhangjiakou railway. I've felt happy recently because a new high-speed railway was built that links the two cities. Do you want to know my story
I was born in 1909. I'm 113 years old now. My creator was Zhan Tianyou. He was a brave and smart man. He believed China should build its own railways without other countries' help. So he built one—China's first self-built railway.
At first, my trains were powered by steam. They were very slow. Their top speed was only 35 km/h. Then, the trains became diesel-powered (以柴油为动力的). Later, there were even better trains powered by electricity (电). But it still took more than three hours to travel from Beijing to Zhangjiakou, Hebei.
When I heard the new high-speed railway opened on Dec. 30, 2019, I felt so excited. It helps people travel much faster. The high-speed trains has a top speed of 350 km/h! It only takes 47 minutes to travel from Beijing to Zhangjiakou.
I'm too old to keep working these days. But I will be preserved (保存) as part of history. It's a little sad. But I'm still proud of all the changes China has made. My creator must be proud too.
