Is it better to travel by plane or by train? It can be determined according to personal circumstances. When time is short, it is faster to take a plane. When time is ample, I would like to take a train to enjoy the mountain scenery along the way.
The reporter recently interviewed the person in charge of Guangdong Tieqing about what should be paid attention to when taking the train in summer.
Carry luggage and prepare in advance
Free to carry
An adult can carry 20 kg of goods for free, and a child can carry 10 kg. The length and volume of the carry on items should be suitable for putting on the luggage rack or under the seat, and the packing should be prescient.
luggage transportation
You must go to the baggage room of the station to check your baggage. Don't trust idle people who ask for checking their baggage on the square. Of course, you can't risk carrying valuables in your luggage. The maximum weight of each piece of luggage is 50 kg.
Ticketing
Each adult passenger can bring a child less than 1.1 meters in height for free. If there is more than one child, the child ticket shall be purchased for the more than one child. Children between 1.1m and 1.4m in height need to buy half price tickets. Children over 1.4m must buy full price tickets.
When a child less than 1.1 meters tall uses a sleeper alone, he or she can only buy a full price sleeper ticket and the corresponding air-conditioned ticket, instead of buying a passenger ticket and an acceleration ticket.
matters needing attention
As there are many people coming and going on the train, parents should take care of their children, especially when getting on and off the train, and when passing the connection between two carriages, they should prevent their children from falling or being hit by the door.
On board anti-theft, be alert
The train is a popular means of transportation, and it is inevitable that the good and the bad mix together. When you take the train, you should be careful and take good care of your belongings.
Keeping property
Put your valuables in your carry on bag, carry the bag on your chest, and try to put your hands on the bag or on the zipper (button) of the bag when waiting for the bus and getting on. If there is a seat, press the bag on your lap or hold it in front of your chest to prevent cutting and stealing. Baggage should be placed within sight.
Keep change ready
When buying food or shopping in the car, do not count money and things on the spot. It is better to prepare the money to be used in advance. It is better to put the cash with you in fractions to reduce risks.
Be alert
If you are sleepy at night, you'd better take turns sleeping with your companions. Be careful if thieves attack you when you are unprepared. When the train stops at the station, the flow of people increases. Pay attention to the luggage to prevent someone from shoplifting.
Precautions in the compartment
Danger of burns
There are two common situations: one is to open the water with a teapot. When the train is running, it will burn itself or others when it stops suddenly or is bumped by others when walking on the sidewalk with the water in hand; Second, put the teapot full of boiling water on the tea table. When encountering an emergency stop, the teapot shakes down or falls off the tea table, scalding the passengers next to it. Therefore, targeted precautions should be taken.
Pay attention to food hygiene
When eating on the train, because there is no exercise condition, the food digestion process is prolonged, and you should not overeat, but eat food that is easy to digest; When buying cooked food on the platform along the way, you should distinguish the freshness to avoid upset stomach; On the way, you should drink water carefully and slowly to avoid damaging the water salt balance in your body. When you feel hungry and thirsty in summer, you may as well replace water with slurry such as mung bean soup and Babao porridge. Especially, you should not eat ice cream, iced soda and other cold drinks. Otherwise, the more you eat, the more thirsty you will be, and it will easily hurt your spleen and stomach.
Get off at the right time for air change
After being on the train for a long time, the air circulation is not sufficient, so every time you arrive at a big station (the dwell time is long), you should get off the train in time on the platform, commonly known as "grounding air", and exercise your muscles by the way, but pay attention to the train's starting bell.
Take the berth correctly
Sleeping in a sleeper in summer should face the end of the sidewalk. Because the air on the sidewalk is relatively circulating and the temperature is low, it is conducive to sleep; Also, avoid exposing rows of feet on the sidewalk, which is uncivilized and impolite.
When driving at night, passengers sleeping in the lower berth should cover some bedding properly, and should not sleep with their head against the window to avoid getting cold.
Experience of netizens:
1. The air-conditioned car is usually cold at night, so you must take a slightly thicker coat.
2. The food sold on the bus is expensive, so it is better to prepare water and food in advance.
3. In order to enjoy the scenery along the way, if you don't choose a sleeper, you'd better choose a place near the window. Type 22 and 23 passenger cars, which are commonly used in China at present, are respectively printed with YZ22 and YZ23 near the door. The seat numbers near the window in the two models are different. The ending number of seat number near the window of Type 22 carriage is 4, 5, 9, 0, and the ending number of seat number near the window of Type 23 carriage is 2, 3, 7, 8.
4. The sleeper berth should be close to the middle of the carriage. The lights at both ends of the carriage are not turned off at night, which is easy to affect sleep, and people coming and going will also upset you.
5. During the ride, you can properly do simple health exercises, so that you can get more energetic when getting off, such as turning your feet, patting your back, shrugging your shoulders, and shaking your hands behind you.
