In the history of the Chinese railway, there is such a legendary locomotive: It crossed the Liberation War bullets, participated in the Tangshan Earthquake disaster relief, has undertaken many years of cargo transport tasks, and now draw the direct express from Beijing to Changsha Express Train, this is the "Mao Zedong" locomotive. And this year, Liu Yufeng, the driver in charge of the "Mao Zedong" rudder, was elected as the 19 delegate. Tomorrow, he will shoulder the trust of tens of thousands of railway workers and fulfill the duties of the 19 delegates.

Eighteen years only spent a Spring Festival at home

    This year is the 18th year of Liu Yufeng's work on the railway. In 1999, Liu Yufeng, who just graduated from Shijiazhuang Railway Driver School, was assigned to the Fengtai locomotive depot. Liu Yufeng took the initiative to undertake the task of making the most of his emergency whenever the spring, summer and winter, key transportation and other key periods occurred. During the critical period of the Wenchuan earthquake, the southern snowstorm and Beijing's heavy rain, he actively participated in the rush-rush transportation task and completed key train transportation successively 168 missions. For 18 years, I had only had a Spring Festival at home.

    In order to master the principle of locomotive structure and operation, Liu Yufeng often carry hundreds of locomotive circuit diagram, brake principle diagram, control circuit diagram, memorize thousands of circuits of various types of locomotives, tens of thousands of parts. Also summed up the "do not rely on the back of the seat, eyes away from the front, the hand does not leave the gate, not speaking, tea is not polite, eat not at the same time," the "six non" safety value by tips, the whole group strict implementation of standardization operation. He also led the backbone of the team to create "Mao Zedong" innovation studio, and actively carry out research projects, technological transformation, formed a "towing the bus smooth operation method" and other 52 innovations.

"Cargo change off" field measurement station line

    In 2014, the "Mao Tse Tung" locomotive ended the mission of freight towing and began to shift to passenger transport.

    From freight transport to passenger transport, for the members of the team is a big change. "Passenger cars and trucks in the mode of operation is entirely on the two concepts, the previous open-load truck requires more than 5000 tons load, starting when the car must be fast, the bus started to require stability, including the brake is also different."

    Liu Yufeng introduced in the "goods change passenger" process, he also pinched a sweat. So he followed the members of the team, spent three months, together with the study of measuring station lines, one-stop analysis of the station to confirm the preparation of a "work instructions" and "train safety tips card." Subsequently, "Mao Zedong" has undergone a series of changes, such as changing models and changing lines.

    On October 29, 2015, Liu Yufeng led the "Mao Tse-tung" locomotive to break the safe passage of 10 million kilometers and set a new record for railway transport safety again. The squad won the "Locomotive Trophy" marking the highest honor of railway safety in production.

"Mao Zedong" spirit from generation to generation

    The "Mao Tse-tung" locomotive coming from the battlefield of the Liberation War has now gone through 71 years of history and has undergone five changeovers from the original steam locomotive to the 160-hour-speed electric locomotive. Today, the Z1 train tracted by "Mao Tse Tung" takes a drive every hour from Beijing West Railway Station at 18:00 and goes to Changsha, Hunan Province. Each time, Liu Yufeng followed "Mao Zedong" out of Beijing, one go is 3 days.

    "As locomotives also have to undertake the tasks of power supply and water supply for trains, locomotives should be ready one hour ahead of time and start the task of trailers so as to allow passengers to feel the coolness of cabin air-conditioners as soon as they walk in." Liu Yufeng introduced that sometimes passengers Trains found that the "Mao Tse-tung" locomotive, will also run to the locomotive at the half-way stop in front of pictures; train passing the Yellow River Bridge, the armed police station guard will train to salute, then Liu Yufeng always sounded the train flute, Cross the long iron bridge. "We had a Mao Zedong badge on the front of the car, and we had to work on the locomotive to get it. Every time we got out of the car, we thoroughly cleaned it and let it stay constant."

    Liu Yufeng is the 12th captain of the "Mao Zedong" locomotive. For him, the most important thing in his bones is the drive and professionalism inherited from the generations of master Mao Zedong. When it comes to attending the meeting, Liu Yufeng said: "This is the honor of the" Mao Zedong "team and the honor of 2 million railway workers. It is a duty and a mission for all industrial workers to attach importance to our work. Representatives of various trades and professions will learn from advanced party branches. "
