Exports were 2.4578 Mt (+15.8%); imports 12.5565 Mt (+5.8%). The port now supports 76 China-Europe rail routes to 70+ hubs in 10+ countries, carrying new-energy products, auto parts, electronics and

On 12 October 2026, China News Service reported from Hohhot that China Railway Hohhot Group said Erenhot railway port's cumulative import and export volume had passed 15 million tonnes. Through 11 October the port handled 15.0143 Mt year-to-date (+7.3% YoY), reaching the mark 19 days earlier than in 2025.

Split: imports 12.5565 Mt (+5.8%); exports 2.4578 Mt (+15.8%). Railway staff cited shorter wagon dwell as a reason for the faster milestone. Erenhot is China's only railway port with Mongolia.

Cross-border product mix: 76 China-Europe rail routes now pass the port, linking more than 70 hub stations in over 10 countries including Germany and Poland. Cargo types have expanded to more than 10,000, including new-energy products, auto parts, electronics and home appliances. That sits alongside the 10 October national freight diagram, which added an inbound China-Europe return via Erenhot to Jinan.
