Coal traffic was sparse during our visit to Dayan on 8 March 2005. The only significant working was this long loaded coal train seen waiting to depart from Erjing yard to Jipei with SY 1307 at its head and SY 1741 bringing up the rear. As luck would have it, the train left before the sunlight found it's way onto the track. Fortunately, the snow reflected enough light to illuminate the scene.
