Passengers on board high-speed trains departing from 27 stations across China can now enjoy a variety of dishes, after online food ordering services started a pilot scheme on Monday.
The China Railway Corporation (CRC) announced the new service earlier this month, which allows high-speed train passengers to order food provided by the trains as well as by other brands. Passengers can order food via the official ticket booking website 12306.cn as well as its applications, and pay via Alipay.
The 27 stations which began to offer the service on Monday are mainly municipalities and provincial capitals, including Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Shenyang, Wuhan, Jinan, Changsha and Chengdu.
