It’s an exciting day. On June 17, the first metro of Hangzhou subway system will finish all the test drive in Nanjing Vehicle Manufactory and leave for Hangzhou. On June 19, it will arrive.

  According to one superintendent of Nanjing Puzhen Plant speaking anonymously, the first metro of Hangzhou subway system will be transported by road.

  How could such a large carriage be transported by road? He said, it is not so difficult. The heavy platform truck used for car transport which we can commonly see in highway is ok.

  As we all know, the first metro of Hangzhou subway Line 1 consists of six carriages, each of which will be separately transported by heavy platform to form into columns. “Transport on road is not very difficult in fact. Instead, car loading is quite troublesome. The weight of each carriage is about 40 tons, so cranes of good performance and operation is badly required.”

  After transported from Nanjing, the first metro will directly take test drive for quite a long time in Qibao train section.
