Pushing
One of Sandaoling's older locos, JS 6209, built at Datong in 1981, pushed a loaded spoil train out of the pit towards Xibolizhan on 12 November 2005. Locos used in the opencast mine had their headlights relocated to the top of the smokebox so they were effective when the loco was propelling a rake of air operated tipper wagons.
