A city with a massive intercontinental rail station and awesome high-speed rail infrastructure, Hangzhou still has one green train line left. It's an internal commuter train between Qiao Si and the Nanxing Bridge. It only has seven cars, and no air conditioning, curtains, or announcements. There are no carts selling refreshments, and it only makes three round trips per day. This is the only commuter train of its age in China, and has now become a symbol of nostalgia.
