“Traveling Xinjiang on a special train—no rushing to catch flights, no lugging luggage, waking up naturally every day, and making a group of old friends!” This is the real feeling of 65-year-old Aunt Zhang after experiencing the Xiaoxiang号. As a “star route” among Xinjiang tourist special trains in 2026, the Xiaoxiang号 has become a “mobile vacation home” in the hearts of middle-aged and elderly tourists thanks to its unique model of “soft sleeper throughout + boutique hotels + in-depth sightseeing.” Today, we will unlock the thoughtful features of this route from the new perspective of “elderly-friendly design.”
