On 01 January 2024, David Feng and family took a national railway train — the last such 01 January journey made was in 2018, signalling a definite return to normal.
That same day, David reset his train miles (however, also keeping his lifetime miles, and updating them from time to time), due to the fact that metro, tram, and other non-national rail forms of rail transport were not systematically counted beforehand.
2024 年 1 月 1 日,馮琰及家人乘搭國家鐵路列車。於一月一日乘搭國鐵列車上一次爲 2018 年,預試着鐵路旅行進一步疫後「復常」。
當天,馮琰對其乘車里程進行了階段性「清零」(同時保持全時里程,且不時進行更新),爲着日後同時計入地圖、電車,及其它非國家鐵路列車乘車里程。
He was actively travelling during the first post-Covid, post-mask-era Chunyun, or Spring Festival Peak Travel Season. Due to extensive rail-related engagements in Beijing, his mileage were limited until June, when he started travelling once again professionally — across China. That month, he clocked his longest rail miles since the pandemic.
Starting in May 2024, he gave talks about the railways roughly every month, the first longer-term effort since the pandemic. From June 2024, these involved extensive travel across China. Travel, however, was significantly curtailed after July 2024, due to unexpected health and financial hardships.
他積極參與疫後「無口罩」的中國鐵路「春運」,但由於疫後在京事宜較多,直至 6 月前並未遠離華北地區。6 月爲其疫後旅行里程最遠之月。
由 2024 年 5 月起,他開始每個月發表鐵路方面演講,並持續一段時間,且於 2024 年 6 月起開始在中國全國範圍陸續進行。然而,因健康及經濟原因,這些旅程於 2024 年 7 月後開始有所節制
By invitation, his family travelled in December 2024 to Thailand to take a break after an exciting, but also very exhausting year. There, he travelled by rail around the north. Returning to China later, he travelled on the Changzhou Metro for the first time. He and his family travelled back to Beijing on 31 December 2024 on a sleeper train, the first time he had travelled on a train spanning two different calendar years.
他應邀同家人於 2024 年 12 月前往泰國,經歷十分繁忙一年後在那裏休假。在泰國,他在北部地區搭乘列車。返回中國後,他首次搭乘常州地鐵。他與家人一起於 2024 年 12 月 31 日搭乘臥鋪列車回到北京,首次在列車上「跨年」。
