Almost 20 meters high and crossing three rails, the Chinese made railway cargo inspection system that has recently been put into operation at the Polish customs makes inspection process possible without stopping or slowing down running trains.
Thanks to the world's largest train container inspection system, the transit and customs clearance time of China Railway Express (CRE) - which conducts freight transportation between China and Europe - are significantly shortened.
Since the inauguration of the CRE, joint efforts involving railway departments, customs, as well as commodity and border inspection agencies have been made to give green light for the whole transit process.
These cross-sector collaborations include streamlining customs clearance procedures, reducing rail-changing time and revising freight standards, among others.
Dong Jianmin, vice chairman of the Railway Cooperation Organization Committee headquartered in Warsaw, said that since May 1, 2017, unified waybills have been applied to all CER trains bound for Germany and France, further raising efficiency.
In addition, the locomotives have been sped up from 80 km per hour to 120 km per hour so as to achieve quicker arrivals, according to Dong.
