The Spring Festival travel rush has entered its busiest time ahead of the Chinese Lunar New Year, which falls on Feb 10, the Beijing Morning Post reported on Monday.

On Sunday, about 430,000 passengers left Beijing from the capital city's four railway stations, the highest number recorded since the 40-day travel rush started on Jan 26.

Railway authorities expect the number of train passengers leaving Beijing each day to remain above 400,000 from Feb 3 to Friday, with the peak period forecast to happen on Wednesday and Thursday.
