The thermal test for Lianyungang-Yancheng Railway Contact Network went underway from Saturday to Monday. The thermal test is the key link before the joint debugging test starts for the electrified railway. It is also the first live operation of the Lianyungang-Yancheng Railway. The thermal test is an important part before the railway goes through the dynamic acceptance. Through the operation of the electric locomotive on-line, the operating status of the locomotive and the catenaries is fully understood. After the thermal test, targeted rectification is carried out. The heavy load test of the freighter train will be carried out three days after the thermal test is completed. The Lianyungang-Yancheng Railway is expected for operation in November.
