Wanggang Harbin Manchuria China 20th October 1983

Now that we can no longer travel very far, a post from better days - 20th October 1983 in China.

We spent an afternoon on the lineside southwest of Harbin in Manchuria and the last train we saw on this day was Chinese Railways QJ 2-10-2 273, built in 1966, as it slowly made its way out of the yard to run down Wanggang bank into Harbin.

Open countryside in 1983 but looking at Google maps the whole area seems to be built up today!

Lovely shot. So much change in the years since we chased steam across China.
