The fact that Jiaotong University moved westward and set up public transport to support the construction of the northwest special train shows the great patriotism and struggle spirit of Jiaotong University. Combined with the background at that time and the slogan "March to science and build the northwest" on the ticket, we can see that the enthusiasm for building a team and actively participating in national construction was high at that time. It also reflects a strong "westward migration spirit".

The "spirit of moving westward" is the precious spiritual wealth of 1956 Jiaotong University in the process of moving from Shanghai to Xi 'an. 1955 In April, the State Council made a major decision to move Jiaotong University to Xi 'an. From 1956, the first batch of teachers and students went to Xi 'an, and from 1959, the main part of Jiaotong University was named Xi 'an Jiaotong University. It took four years for Jiaotong University to move westward, and the total number of people who moved to Xi 'an reached 15000.
