This video is one of 5 videos in the "Steam Around The World" series that was originally released in 1996. It has not been available in any fashion for probably 15 years, so here it is on DVD as a new release.
Step into the Asian countryside of China and witness a big show of mainline steam, in the world's last stronghold of steam locomotives. You will see a little of everything that you might expect from a country that was building steam engines only a few years ago, and was still operating thousands of steam engines on a daily basis. In this video we take you to Northeast China where we see plenty of doubleheaders, and even some trains with rear pushers. Most are the QJ 2-10-2's on a variety of freight and passenger runs.

You'll also see a lot of human interest scenes, and much more in the fascinating country. There are also several meet |
