Under Construction
JS 8309 (furthest from the camera) and JS 8310 took shape in the erecting shop at Datong Works on 11 April 1988. 1988 was the final year of steam production at Datong before the works switched to building diesels, and later, electrics. During that year Datong built around 170 JS and 20 QJ, better than one new loco every two days.
