“Youxiang Longjiang Snow Country”:A new way to travel for the Northeast ice and snow journey
Train Introduction:Redefining high-end ice and snow tourism travel
“Youxiang Longjiang Snow Country” is a high-end tourist train specially designed for ice and snow tourism enthusiasts. After a full upgrade in 2026, it takes “slow travel, deep experience” as its core concept, focusing on a “worry-free throughout, thoughtful service” travel experience. The train adopts a fully enclosed carriage design with a constant temperature air conditioning system. Even in the Northeast winter at minus 30°C, the carriage can maintain a comfortable temperature of 22°C-25°C. Positioned as a “mobile five-star hotel,” it not only solves the pain point of repeatedly moving luggage during traditional long-distance travel, but also allows tourists to travel comfortably from boarding to alighting through a service model of “one price includes designated items in the itinerary.”
The train route covers the core ice and snow scenic areas of the three Northeast provinces, connecting popular destinations such as Harbin Ice and Snow World, Yabuli Ski Resort, Changbai Mountain Tianchi, and Snow Town. The itinerary design balances classic and niche experiences, including must-visit attractions as well as special experiences like snow hot springs and forest snowfield hiking. After the 2026 schedule optimization, the train adopts a rhythm of “playing during the day, traveling at night,” avoiding night travel and ensuring tourists have sufficient rest time.
Train Compartments:Detailed design of the platinum carriages

The upper berth space is raised to 1.2 meters, so adults can sit up without feeling cramped; the lower berth is raised to 0.6 meters, and a 28-inch suitcase can be placed under the bed, solving the luggage storage problem of long-distance travel.
Upgraded Configuration: Each compartment is equipped with an extendable long table (when unfolded, it reaches 1 meter in length, enough for 4 people to dine or play at the same time), 6 USB charging ports (3 for each upper and lower berth), reading lights, widened anti-slip ladder (40cm wide) with handrails, and a service call button (24-hour response).
