China-Laos Railway

China-Laos Railway is not a big project for China with high-speed rail, but it is of great significance to China and Laos. China-Laos Railway is a popular project closely linked with ordinary people in Laos, and it is the "No.1 Project" that the Lao government pays close attention to. It carries the dream of Laos' transformation from a "land locked country" to a "land linked country" and the expectation that nearly 6.8 million people will integrate into modern society.

From Thailand via Thai-Lao Friendship Bridge to Tanarang in the south of Vientiane, there is a 3.5-kilometer-long meter-gauge railway, which is the only railway in Laos at present. The platform of Tana Gallery is very simple and the vehicles are old. Laos takes the 15 minute train from Tanarang to Langkai Station in Thailand to continue the journey. Even so, there are still many Lao people who have never been on the train. In the ever-changing modern society, if Tanarang Station is full of homesickness in traffic history, then China-Laos Railway will become the most realistic, direct and quickest way for the Lao people to catch up with modern life.
