The New Oriental Express is affiliated with the China Railway Urumqi Group Co., Ltd. and has been in operation since 1999, initially targeting overseas tourists. Over the years of operation, the New Oriental Express has achieved good social and economic benefits and has become a star product in the inbound tourism market of Xinjiang.
After the expiration and disposal of the old carriages in 2019, due to the continuous flow of foreign tourists, the decision was made to refit new carriages and continue operating the project. The refitting lasted for nearly a year, costing 48 million yuan for the carriage refitting and an additional 2 million yuan for the soft decoration, with an overall renovation cost exceeding 50 million yuan. The New Oriental Express retained the previous design, but with improvements in details; the old carriages mainly used panels, while the furniture in the new carriages is all solid wood. Each carriage is equipped with a small refrigerator, adjustable air conditioning, and safe deposit boxes in the Gold Diamond compartments. The exterior of the carriages was specially painted to resemble a green train, aiming to create a vintage atmosphere.
The New Oriental Express mainly carries passengers in Gold Diamond carriages, Blue Diamond carriages, and Silver Diamond carriages, with differences in the number of occupants and equipment facilities for each type of carriage. In addition to the passenger carriages, the New Oriental Express is also equipped with 2 dining carriages and 1 bar lounge carriage.
