Would be a shame if they would be replaced by diesel or electric locos. But really interesting video. Would have thought that China would have given them up ages ago.

Thanks. Likely to be replaced by electrics but last report indicated little progress with electrification since our September 2011 visit.

Great video, good to see so much steam action in the second decade of the 21st century. Let us enjoy it while we can.

I have got to second that what my old mate Peter has just said super vid . I have never seen coal pickers go at it like that before. lets hope for a bit longer yet!!!! they did look a bit clueless looking at that electric pile of junk.
