At 9:07 p.m. on March 27, the traction substation of Yichangbei Railway Station on the Shanghai-Chongqing-Chengdu High-Speed Railway officially began its energization operations following the successful closing of the 220 kV circuit breaker. This event signifies the full activation of the power supply system at Yichangbei Railway Station, providing essential electrical support for the subsequent static acceptance, joint debugging, and the line’s opening in September. Once operational, the traction substation will significantly enhance the reliability of train operations, reducing travel time from Wuhan to Yichang from approximately 2 hours to about 1 hour.
