CANGZHOU -- On regular days, truck driver Kong Lingjian and his wife Wang Yanqing mainly transport goods between Hangzhou of East China's Zhejiang province and the areas around Wuhan of Central China's Hubei province. To save expenses, they live in their truck year-round. For the couple, the truck is their second home.

As the Spring Festival approaches, Kong and his wife felt an increasing longing to return home. "There are still a few days left until the Spring Festival; we'll earn as much as we can while we still have the chance," said Kong. After several days of searching for jobs, on Jan 17, Kong finally secured a delivery order heading to their hometown, Zhongying village of Cangzhou city in North China's Hebei province. The next day, the couple spent an entire day loading the cargo and embarked on their journey home.

Pic story: dedicated watchman at "Invisible" railway station in SW China's Yunnan-

Li Yanlin monitors the equipment at the Zhugecheng Railway Station in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture of southwest China's Yunnan Province, Jan. 21, 2025. Zhugecheng Railway Station is a small crossing station on the railway connecting Dali and Lijiang cities in southwest China's Yunnan Province. Li Yanlin, who is 50, has worked as a station watchman here for 15 years.

While the trains only stop at the station's sidetracks which pass through a mountain, the station's main building, built on the mountain slope, remain "invisible" to the general passengers. Normally, the station will only be visited by either Li or another colleague who works alternate shifts.

During the Spring Festival, there are over 60 trains passing by the station every day. For the past six Spring Festivals, when most people enjoyed the holiday, Li was always been on duty, checking and maintaining equipment, coordinating with train dispatch, and dealing with emergencies along the railway line. This year, he finally gets the chance to spend time with family members.

Working alone at this "invisible" railway station can be boring, but Li never failed to fulfil his duties. "My job is to guard the safety of passengers on their way home. And I will stick to my post until my retirement as long as it needs me, " he said. (All photos by Xinhua/Hu Chao)
