LANZHOU -- During this year's Spring Festival travel rush, busy staff members at Lanzhou West Railway Station are joined by a group of foreign students, who help passengers carry luggage, assist with security checks, and provide inquiry services.

This team of foreign student volunteers consists of 10 members from countries such as Kenya, Chad, Laos, Afghanistan and Madagascar, who are studying at Lanzhou University.

The volunteers, invited by the railway department, have been given the opportunity to feel the unique vibe of China's Spring Festival travel season.

"As Spring Festival is around the corner, being a volunteer for the travel season and helping passengers return home for family reunions is a joyful experience to be proud of," said Kalbe Brai Madoue, a student from Chad.
