A light railway track has been built to go through a hole in a residential 19-storey building in China.

Residents can hop on Chongqing Rail Transit No.2 at their own Liziba station.

当地居民可以在李子坝站搭乘轻轨二号线。

Even though they are living in close quarters to a busy train station any noise has been muffled by special equipment.

虽然他们生活在繁忙的轻轨站旁，但是轻轨站的噪音却被特种设备消除了。

To homeowners in the complex the sound of the train is designed to be as disturbing as the noise from a dishwasher.
