The 2026 national Spring Festival travel rush has officially started, and transportation hubs across the country are gradually welcoming a peak in travel for returning home and visiting relatives. In recent days, at the important transportation hub Beijing West Railway Station, passenger flow has significantly increased, and the station is bustling with crowds. Soldiers from a certain detachment of the Beijing Armed Police Corps, based on the Spring Festival travel work deployment, have organized personnel to occupy key areas of the station, fully carrying out duty support tasks to ensure the safety of travelers returning home.

The duty personnel are implementing 24/7 monitoring at key locations in the station according to the requirements of "designated personnel, designated posts, designated times, and designated responsibilities." They are strengthening patrol control at critical points such as the crowded entrances, security check areas, and waiting halls, assisting in maintaining order on-site, while closely observing passenger flow dynamics, promptly identifying and eliminating safety hazards, and building a solid safety barrier for travelers during the Spring Festival travel rush.

It is understood that this detachment established a joint logistics and coordination mechanism with the station management and railway police before the Spring Festival travel rush began, sharing passenger flow data and operational information in real-time to scientifically deploy duty forces. During their duty, the soldiers strictly implement security responsibilities while actively providing warm services to travelers, assisting those with heavy luggage, guiding elderly, weak, sick, and disabled travelers through green channels, and coordinating with station staff to create priority passage services, receiving praise from passing crowds.

The leadership of the detachment stated in an interview: "All personnel will execute the Spring Festival travel support tasks to the highest standards, continuously deepen the military-civilian cooperation mechanism, resolutely maintain order at the station, and ensure that every traveler returns home safely and travels smoothly, providing strong support for the safety of the Spring Festival travel rush."
