China News Service, Nanning, November 8th (Ziyin Ming Xuede Lu Shiyu) At 8:00 on November 7th, Guangxi's first Y878 "Bagui Suo Noodles" themed tourist train sailed from Nanning Station to Guilin North Station, carrying nearly a hundred passengers to start the journey of "eating noodles and enjoying the scenery to visit Bagui".

Guangxi is known as the "Hometown of Rice Noodles". The skill of making rice noodles has a long history. In the streets and alleys of various cities, rice noodle shops with different flavors form a unique food culture landscape. Recently, many foreign tourists have chosen to travel to Guangxi during off-peak travel. In order to meet the needs of tourists to taste Guangxi rice noodles and experience gourmet culture and intangible cultural heritage skills during travel, China Railway Nanning Bureau Group Co., Ltd. (referred to as China Railway Nanning Bureau) launched the "Bagui Suo Noodles" themed tourist train between the three cities of Nanning, Liuzhou and Guilin, bringing Nanning Laoyou Noodles, Liuzhou Snail Rice Noodles, Guilin Rice Noodles and other representative Guangxi rice noodle categories to the train tables.

"I saw information about this tourist train on the Internet and thought it was very novel, so I bought a ticket a week in advance and wanted to experience it." Sun Yuewei, a passenger from Nanning, said.

It is understood that this "Bagui Suofen" themed tourist train is composed of 2 hard sleeper carriages, 2 soft sleeper carriages, 1 multifunctional vehicle and 2 dining cars. The train is equipped with a rice noodle display area, a food experience area and an interactive entertainment area. Representative inheritors of rice noodle intangible cultural heritage are invited to explain the history and production techniques of Guangxi rice noodle to passengers, and organized cultural performances, song choruses, prize-winning quizzes and other programs. Passengers can not only taste authentic Laoyou noodles, snail noodles, and Guilin rice noodles, but also participate in rich cultural and entertainment activities and enjoy a relaxing and enjoyable journey. "This is the first time I can eat three kinds of rice noodles on a train. The experience is very special and very fresh." Passenger Huang Chonghao said that he was pleasantly surprised by the delicious rice noodles, high-quality service and clean carriage environment.

"The 'Bagui Suofen' theme tourist train is mainly positioned as 'Guangxi characteristics, slow travel, slow travel', providing new travel options for passengers who are not in a hurry and prefer immersive experiences." Chen Qiaoping, deputy manager of the tourism business department of Guangxi Railway Culture and Tourism Group Co., Ltd., said, "In the future, we will operate special tourist trains in more directions according to market needs to enrich the travel experience of passengers."

The "Bagui Suofen" themed tourist train will initially run 4 times. Passengers taking the special train can also enjoy discounts from multiple hotels and scenic spots with their own two-day ticket (itinerary or railway 12306 ticket purchase information). Currently, Guangxi is in the golden period of "autumn and winter travel". Data shows that since the end of the National Day holiday in October, there have been 10 special tourist trains bound for Guangxi from all over the country; the Nanning Bureau of the State Railway has launched 2 special tourist trains from Nanning to Bama and Nandan "Gui Xing Tian Xia".
