Spoil in Decline
By late 2014 the steam worked spoil operation at Sandaoling was running down, with most spoil removal being done by road vehicles. The lines in this picture, plus one more out of shot on the right, were all that was left of the rail operation.JS.6209 worked a loaded spoil train towards the surface on 21 November 2013.
