Ziyang-made locomotives are popular in Thailand, and currently more than 20 units of Ziyang-made locomotives are running on Thailand's lines.
The hanging monorail train, a new-mode rail transit product of CRRC Ziyang, also gained many fans at the expo.
It has the characteristics of green, environmental protection, safety, less land occupation, short construction period, and strong environmental adaptability, etc.
In 2016, CRRC Ziyang successfully developed the first commercial hanging monorail train in China, creating a precedent for the marketization of hanging monorail train in China.
In 2020, CRRC Ziyang completed the schematic design of hanging container monorail freight vehicle.
So far, CRRC Ziyang has become the only enterprise in China with the ability to develop hanging vehicles for both passenger and freight transport.
