Thanks for sharing what you know of. But what puzzles me is that if all tickets went from the ticketing agents to the scalpers to sell them at a 50Yaun mark up, and later on only a handful of passengers were on the train. I'm sure that somebody reads the revenue numbers of the train ridership. Wouldn't the revenu be very low? Meantime, wouldn't there be many people complaining this situation to the governement? There must be a governmental department that handles complaints like this. I would think the flock of complaints would have brought loud attentions from the high-ranked official and start its investigations to see wha's causing the shortage of tickets?

Haven lived in Shanghai for four years before, I know how helpless most of the civilians are. Many don't even believe they have the right to complain. Meantime, highly educated folks such as you, Wang Jianshuo, ought to write to media and perhaps even to the Major Han Zheng who ought to appoint a task force to investigate the situation, and to punish those who are responsible for scalpering the tickets. Make sure that they get heavy fines puls jail time.
