Passengers crowd streets near a railway station in Guangzhou, south China's Guangdong Province, February 4, 2006. The increasing number of farmers from the populous Sichuan and Hunan provinces who rush south to Guangdong Province to find jobs are exerting heavy pressure on trains, a railway official said on Friday. Nearly 300,000 passengers arrived Friday in the Pearl River Delta in Guangdong, a southern province that borders Hong Kong, according to Ding Liang, an official with the Guangzhou Railway Corporation Group. [Newsphoto]
