A local sells hot water to passengers of a
long-distance bus that was stuck in heavy snow for more than 30 hours
on a highway near Zhengzhou, capital of central China's Henan Province
January 19, 2006. More than 40,000 vehicles were stranded on the National
Highway 107 Henan section, stretching some 40 kilometres. Two days of
blizzards shut down expressways in the province and also disrupted railway
transport. At Zhengzhou railway station, about 70,000 passengers were also
delayed, bringing chaos to the rail hub.
