The Spring Festival travel peak is expected to start from this Saturday. It's the busiest time of the whole year for the selling of train tickets. Railway departments across the country are taking various measures to deal with the pressure.
One million real-name tickets from the Guangzhou Railway Group had been booked by phone as of Tuesday. But one third of them were not collected within the period of validity. Those tickets will return to the booking system. And ticket scalpers take advantage of the loophole.
Huang Xin, Official Guangzhou Railway Group, said, "The scalpers book the tickets with their IDs first, and sell the tickets to those who need them. When the period of validity has passed, they will replace the ID information with the buyers' with the help of someone in the phone booking system."
