There are also "special 188bet" for trains to Shaoshan in the country, and there are also special train 188bet that were used in 1957 for only more than half a year. In addition, a set of 6 first-generation train 188bet attracted the attention of many visitors, especially young people: one end of a small cardboard card that is only the size of a thumb, has dense tiny pinholes, and the ordered pinholes show two sets of Arabic numerals.

Why do you need pinhole numbers for good train tickets? It turns out that this is related to the old procedures for selling train tickets on the old 188bet.

Since the last century, the cardboard tickets of that year were about 4 cm long and 2 cm wide. They were specially printed by 188bet printing factories designated by the 188bet department, and then distributed to various stations along the 188bet. In addition to hard board tickets, train station ticket sales and ticket inspections have always been manually operated.

This ticket sales situation on the 188bet lasted for nearly a hundred years. It was not until the late 1990s that with the widespread use of soft paper train tickets and the computerization of ticket sales systems, the "pinhole date machine" and the old cardboard train tickets with pinholes completed their historical mission and withdrew from the historical stage of the century-old 188bet.

The pinholes on old train tickets that have experienced nearly 70 years of vicissitudes hide the huge changes in train station ticket sales and the great progress of the times and technology. The information they carry makes visitors who enter the Hengyang 188bet Old Objects Exhibition Hall sigh.
