A sunny day at the Shibanxi narrow gauge line in Southern China! Once a hidden gem, the railroad becomes more and more popular with tourists now: both railfans and "normal" tourists from nearby Chengdu! One of the passenger coaches, dedicated to tourists only, is seen here in this freight consist. Normally the railway runs either a tourist or a freight train but high demand of coal and only two operating steam locomotive meant that it had to be a mixed train today! ? www.tanago.de
