CCTV News: Railway travel is the first choice for many people to travel through the Spring Festival travel rush. However, some people often encounter the situation when buying tickets, and some people are confused about whether electronic devices can be charged on trains. Let’s listen to the professional answers to these questions.

How can we improve the success rate of candidates?

In this regard, professionals said that first, we must submit the waitlist purchase order as soon as possible, and the system will cash the tickets in the order of submission. Second, it is recommended that you submit more combinations of "time + train + seats".

In addition, it is recommended to choose to accept new trains. If the railway department has temporarily added trains, the system will automatically give priority to the candidate passengers.

Is charging safe on trains?

The voltage and frequency parameters of the alternating current and household electricity provided on the train are the same, and the train circuit system also has an overload protection device. Under normal circumstances, as long as passengers do not use high-power electrical appliances to avoid overloading the sockets, it is safer to use electricity for trains and the probability of electric shock is low.

Qi Huiyan, the commander of the G232nd train of Qingdao Passenger Transport Section of the Jinan Bureau of the National Railway, emphasized that it is limited to charging of small-power electrical appliances such as laptops, mobile phones, tablets, electric shavers, and train office communication equipment. It is prohibited to insert the plug-in board, and high-power electrical appliances such as induction cookers, air fryers, rice cookers, and electric kettles are not allowed.

What are the regulations on power banks?

The railway stipulates that the rated energy of a single power bank shall not exceed 100 watt hours. In terms of identification requirements, power banks must have clear logos. Power banks with no logos or unclear logos are strictly prohibited from taking them on the train. In addition to power banks, electric wheelchairs for disabled people can also be brought on the train.

What are the other regulations on carrying items on high-speed rail?

This year's Spring Festival holiday will be 8 days, and the Asian Winter Games will open next month. Many sports enthusiasts will start their sports journey with sports equipment. So what should you pay attention to when carrying these sports equipment?

Ding Shouguo, director of Daqing West Station of the Harbin Bureau of the National Railway, said that when skis, snow poles, hiking poles and other items are stored no more than 130 cm after storage, and properly packaged, you can take them on the train.

In addition, sports equipment must meet the weight requirements. According to regulations, ordinary passengers can carry 20 kilograms of items for free. If this limit is exceeded, consignment is required.
