Shenzhen speed: A relay across generations

Over four decades ago a group of young people rode slow green trains southward to Shenzhen. With sweat and toil, they laid the foundation for the city and created the legendary "Shenzhen speed." More than 40 years later, after Shenzhen North Railway Station closes to passengers, another group of young people is working through the night, quietly safeguarding the safe and smooth operation of this transport hub of the Greater Bay Area. From the Capital Construction Engineers of the past to the frontline railway workers of today, times and roles may have changed, but the builders' sense of mission endures. They are members of the CPC, they are young, and above all, they are the enduring hope of a city that never stops moving forward.
