一九八六年三月,国务院批准铁路系统从同年可开始实行经济承包责任制,改变过去那种利润上缴国家、基本建没投资花钱又伸手向国家要的收支两条线的做法。这种改革,把经济责任、经济权力和经济利益有机结合起来,是铁路经济管理上的一项根本性改革。 In March 1986, the State Council approved the railway system to start from the same year to implement the system of economic contract responsibility, to change the previous method of paying over the country profits and basically not investing in the two lines of payments needed and costly to the country. This kind of reform, organically combining economic responsibility, economic power and economic interests, is a fundamental reform of the railway economic management.
