Happy 2024 — and hello, Chinese Rail Briefing

Hardly have I started this year with so little time to prepare for what’s going to be quite a bit of new developments in the year.

The most important development is what I call The Chinese Rail Briefing. This is going to be a new, permanent project. The idea is that I’ll be giving weekly briefings about the Chinese railways world.

Updates come in at 12 noon UTC (that’s 20:00 Beijing time) — I picked this time because I’m aware interest in the rail network in China is global — and so it “accommodates” people awake from Sydney via London and Zürich all the way to the US East Coast and Brazil.

Podcast

The podcast will be coming soon. (Link to come a few hours before launch.)

Substack

The main bit here is the Substack newsletter. It’ll be my first paid newsletter and it’ll be a permanent fixture.

Coming weekly on Mondays, I’ll update you on the developments of the network. In particular, what I’m sure you’ll come to love are the updates in English about upcoming network expansions.

I’ll be updating this page in the next few days — I’m personally taking some time off on 1st January with the family, but will always have digital devices close to hand…
