Jianmeixian Departure
JS 8190 left Jianmeixian after unloading its train on 30 November 2016. Around 40% of the trains from Xikeng didn’t go to the washery but continued to Dongbolizhan and then took the line that loops downhill, past the works, to Jianmeixian. Most of the coal transhipped there left Sandaoling in huge lorries but, intriguingly, some also appeared to be loaded into standard containers mounted on rail wagons.The store can be seen in the background, above the train, full of redundant steam locos, steam cranes and wagons, none of which are likely to work again.
