Hubei, the hard-hit province of the novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak, dispatched its first chartered train on Wednesday morning, sending about 530 workers to Shaoxing, East China's Zhejiang province, as China Youth Daily reported.
It was the first train with a stopover in Central China's Hubei since the province has been in lockdown since in late January. It was approved on Tuesday with great support from the provincial government and China State Railway Group.
