Empties for Mine 4
Pingdingshan's collieries are highly productive and need a constant supply of empty wagons to carry away their coal output. JS 8062 climbed away from Erkuang (Mine 2) with a long rake of empties from Shenxi yard to Sikuang (Mine 4), located high on the hillside above the city. The loco faced several km of stiff climbing before it reached its destination.
