The Lyusi Qibu Port Area in Tongzhou Bay, Qidong, witnessed the departure of the vessel carrying the new energy light rail train that CRRC Co Ltd exported to Argentina for the first time on Sept 23.

The green and intelligent train can run on a variety of power sources and adapt to various formations, making it useful for urban commuting and tourism transportation in low and medium traffic areas.

The train is the first lithium-electric new energy rail transit product in Argentina and is expected to arrive in Jujuy province in late November. It will operate through the Humahuaca Valley with a top speed of 70 kilometers per hour.
