As per Insider, Chinese railway collaborated with the Communist Youth League to start a special train service for all the 200 million single people in the country. Accordingly, the 10-coach train was boarded by 1,000 young men and women of China who embarked on a romantic overnight trip from Chongqing North Station to Amour last week.

The train named Y999 ‘Love-Pursuit Train’ was launched years ago to help youngsters meet and discover their Mr. and Ms. Right. It makes three trips every year and 3,000 youngsters have thus far been a part of it. Out of this, around 10 couples who met on board have tied the knot.

Several games and events were organized for the passengers throughout the journey. They were also invited to watch a traditional performance at the ancient water town, called Zhuo Shui.

Yang Huan told Mail Online that she has already found a partner. “We only got to know each other on the return trip and realized we had matching values,” she said.

“We realized that we both wanted the kind of love that is depicted in the poem “To the Oak Tree” when both sides admire each other but remain independent. We enjoyed being together. [It felt] nature, easy and not coy,” she added.

China’s growing population and gender gap is a probable reason why people in the country face difficulties in finding a partner. The love train is an initiative taken to provide a platform for millennials to meet and build meaningful relationships.

So how do you like the idea? Do you think India too should adopt it?
