Thank you for your comment. The JiTong Railway was a mind boggling steam railway for western enthusiasts in 2003. Sadly it's all diesel now, although a handful of these QJ locos are kept in working order. Andy
It's a beautiful building. I don't know if it's possible to go inside the pagoda. I hope to go back there in a few weeks so I'll take a look at it! Andy
You're right. That was an awful accident. Did they find everyone? There were 35 missing last time I heard. The difference between China and the west is that labour is cheap in China. The double headed QJs over the Jingpeng Pass had a crew of 7 ... 2 drivers, 4 firemen (to take turns) and a guard.
Amazing vid! Those endless mongol plains are quite impressive! An impression of desolate solitude!

Good to see a guard's van at the back of the train, if they had one in Canada that terrible accident would not have happened.
一千年前的辽代古塔，好像可以随便进？！

There will be many tattoos ，I guess.
