Return to Home during the Qingming Festival

We've got three days off during the Qingming Festival. So I pulled my luggage and went home. Now I am sitting on my chair comfortably in front of my computer and compose this post. Yes, what seems incredible is the fact that I was at my university just several hours ago. Thanks to the multiple-unit train!

The multiple unit is a self-propelling train unit capable of coupling with other units of the same or similar type while still being controlled from one cab. A multiple-unit train consists of multiple units. Compared to the locomotive-hauled train, the multiple-unit train features higher velocity, acceleration and energy efficiency.

I took the multiple-unit train of D3053, which launches in Hefei at 14:49 and lands in Hankou, Wuhan at 16:43. I was filled with excitement when I was waiting on the platform for the train to come. Finally, it showed. It's really handsome! On its face, wrote the Chinese Hexie Hao, which can be translated as the train of harmony. I hurried into the train, found my seat and sat down. It's quite commodious!

The whole trip was pleasant and short. I really love it.
