Lindu Hao:A luxurious new way to unlock the ice-and-snow journey of Northeast China ✨
Train Introduction:Redefining the high-end travel experience
The Lindu Hao tourist train is designed around the concept of a “mobile five-star hotel.” All 15 carriages provide a full chain of services including accommodation, dining, entertainment, and wellness, with a recommended capacity of 60 seats to ensure every passenger enjoys a private space. The train features panoramic viewing windows. When crossing the snowy forest sea in winter, the silvery-white pristine forest outside contrasts vividly with the warm ambiance inside. The newly upgraded soundproofing and noise-reduction technology in 2026 keeps in-train noise below 45 decibels, comparable to the environment of a high-end hotel room.
As the first tourist train in China equipped with a medical room, the carriages are fitted with AED emergency equipment, oxygen generators, and common medications. The onboard doctors all hold licensed physician certificates. The train uses a central air-conditioning system with a constant room temperature of 22–24°C and humidity controlled at 40%–60%, making it especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly passengers of all ethnic groups.
