✨ [New Oriental Express Xuelian No.:Full Analysis of Soft Sleeper Configuration, Bringing Comfortable Travel Experience onto the Western Regions Railway]✨
Many tourists choosing long-distance Xinjiang tours worry about scattered attractions and long travel times. The third-generation New Oriental Express Xuelian No., fully upgraded in 2026, is centered on high-end soft sleeper configuration, fully leveraging the advantage of “traveling at night, sightseeing during the day,” eliminating the hassle of repeatedly packing luggage and transferring, while also ensuring ample rest during the journey.
🚄 Basic train-wide configuration, supporting the soft sleeper experience
The Xuelian No. train launched in 2026 features folding bellows windshields and tight-lock couplers throughout. Compared to traditional trains, sand-proof sealing is significantly improved — even through dusty sections, the cabins remain clean and dust-free. Meanwhile, vibration and noise during operation are greatly reduced, so even light sleepers can enjoy a stable and quiet rest environment in the soft sleeper compartments. The entire train is recommended to carry 92 passengers, providing ample per-person space without crowding or noise.
🛏 ️ Exclusive hardware configuration of soft sleeper compartments, with ample privacy and comfort
The soft sleeper compartments on Xuelian No. come in different tiers, and all compartments come standard with smart bathroom systems with 24-hour hot water — no need to share public bathrooms with other passengers, fully ensuring privacy and convenience during travel. Each compartment is equipped with a temperature control system, allowing passengers to adjust the temperature to their comfort. Even with the large temperature differences between day and night in Xinjiang, a comfortable feel is maintained inside the carriage at all times.
The large viewing windows in the compartments feature anti-UV treatment. Sitting by the window, you can enjoy the grasslands, snow mountains, and desert scenery along the way, and photos won’t have glass reflections. The compartments are also equipped with leisure sofas and ample storage space for personal luggage and travel souvenirs. Anti-slip handrails and emergency call devices have been installed for elderly passengers, allowing them to contact the carriage attendant immediately if any issue arises. The bedding in the compartments uses skin-friendly fabrics, regularly replaced and cleaned, offering an experience similar to a high-end hotel standard room.
🥂 Exclusive public amenities for soft sleeper passengers, making travel time anything but dull
Passengers purchasing soft sleeper seats can use all public facilities on the train:
✔ Ruihao Shanshan Dining Car:The ceiling features a design inspired by the starry night of the Aktas grassland. Looking up while dining, you can see a simulated grassland starry sky in a cozy atmosphere. The chef team offers dishes blending Xinjiang specialties with flavors from across the country, and can also customize vegetarian or special dietary menus upon request. While dining, you can also enjoy the flowing Western Regions scenery outside the window.
✔ Xuelian Yaji Multi-functional Car:Features a leisure bar serving coffee, tea, and Xinjiang specialty drinks, where passengers can chat and relax with fellow travelers. There is also an intangible cultural heritage display area showcasing Xinjiang handicrafts such as Atlas silk and handmade leather goods, which interested passengers can view up close. The carriage also includes a designated smoking area to accommodate different passenger needs.

💁 Exclusive services accompanying soft sleeper accommodations, worry-free throughout the journey
Each soft sleeper accommodation carriage is staffed with one dedicated attendant who provides daily services such as delivering drinking water, tidying the compartment, and reminding passengers of upcoming stops. Passengers can contact the attendant at any time for any needs. The train is accompanied by onboard medical staff throughout the journey, providing timely treatment for minor ailments, headaches, fevers, bumps, and scrapes.
