Qinghai-Tibet railway will be a profitable project* official

China's landmark project in the vast western region, the Qinghai-Tibet railway, will be a profitable project when it is finally put to use, said the director-in-chief of the project.

Lu Chunfang, who is also the manager of Qinghai-Tibet Railway Company, refuted claims that the railway is a political and charitable cause.

The first phase of the construction was 653 kilometers long at an average altitude of 3,200 meters. According to detractors, the average operation cost would be three times as much as the average transport fees. They estimated that the operation of the entire railway would generate an annual deficit of 1.26 to 2 billion yuan (154 to 244 million US dollars).

However, Lu believed the railway would bring profit by low maintenance cost and increasing tourist arrivals.

He said the whole railway would require some 400 people for maintenance and safety, less than one person per kilometer, which is much lower than the national average + 20 people per kilometer.

In addition, figures from the Tibet Autonomous Region Government show that the number of tourists to Tibet has been increasing by 10 percent each year, even reaching 29 percent last year. Therefore by 2007 when the entire railway begins operation, over 900,000 tourists would visit the region by train and their spending would increase as well, said Lu.
Although only six passenger and passenger-freight trains would be regularly running in the early period of operation, two to four high-class trains would also be provided for tourists.

Tourists would be able to watch ethnic performances on the trip and visit major tourist sites along the railway without changing to other vehicles.

"The unique and mysterious scenery of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau will attract more tourists when the railway is finished, so we are very optimistic about the operation in the future," said Lu.
