The 488th China-Europe Express Railroad train starting at Tianjin port took off on Monday in north China's Tianjin Municipality. CGTN reporters headed to the Tianjin port and captured the moment.

In 2013, China proposed the Belt and Road Initiative. The China-Europe freight train service was launched in the same year and has flourished over the past decade, becoming modern day "steel camel caravans" that transport goods between China and Europe.
