Chinese authorities have ordered urgent measures to be put in place to fight nationwide transport chaos caused by severe weather conditions.
Ice and snowfall caused power cuts that left 100,000 people stranded at train stations in southern China on Sunday.
Forecasters predict the bad weather will continue for a week, causing travel misery in the run-up to the Lunar New Year holiday on 7 February.
Nearly 18 million people are due to visit relatives during the period.
