The dining car of ordinary trains is located in cars No.8 to No.11, that is, the middle car number between the sleeper and the seat. Trains are grouped in different lengths, usually in the middle of the train. Like restaurants, restaurants on the train mainly provide catering services for long-distance passengers, and they will only be open when eating. Moreover, the dining car on the train is between the hard sleeper and the soft sleeper, generally with 12 tables and 48 seats.

In addition, the dining car will not be opened during non-dining hours, so as to ensure the cleanliness of the dining car, and passengers without seats cannot occupy it for a long time. The kitchen equipment of the dining car mainly includes refrigerators, freezers, stoves, ovens, boilers, coal boxes, dishwashing pools, cupboards, storage boxes, etc. The storeroom is used to store tobacco, alcohol, sugar tea, rice noodles and eggs, dried and fresh vegetables and other foods.

distribution of train seats

The distribution of seats in hard-seat trains is usually a "3+2" arrangement, that is, three seats are connected together on one side, an aisle is in the middle, and two seats are connected together on the other side, each row has five seats, and the seat numbers are usually sorted by Arabic numerals. When looking for a seat, just look for the number directly. For example, 11 car number 113, 11 car means car number 11, and 113 means seat number 3.

The seats with the number of 118 people in the car seat with the mantissa of "1", "4", "5" and "9" are by the window (No.1 is also by the window), and the seats with the number of 112 people in the car seat with the mantissa of "3", "4", "8" and "9" are by the window (1, 3, 9). The arrangement and layout of some trains may be opposite to that in the picture (there are three seats on the left and two seats on the right, so the order of seat numbers will change)
