Description Mei Lien and her 7 remaining sisters are always constantly pressed hard to work on the Sandaoling coal mine railway in northern China. The line has quite a busy schedule to and large orders to make just about everyday, the only times theyre off work is when theyre in Sandaolings own dedicated locomotive works in DonBolizan. The fact the Mei and her sisters have to pull long and heavy trains full of coal and pit waste is already unbearable enough but they also have 20 hour long shifts. who would've thought these JS's would still be going all this time and with steam operations currently decreasing on the Coal Mine Railway it is likely these last remaing full service JS's will probly end up being scrapped. thankfully i have a different fate set in mind for Mei in a TRLS special being planned in the near future. Sojust finish on that here is Mei pulling one of her average everyday coal trains out of the deep pits at DonBolizan to the China Rail Mainline at Hami and as you can see she's having a tough time of it.

question, you know what's the longest type of train she could pull ?????

i've seen videos on youtube of similar coal trains in china, only with 13 cars, i'd assume that's nowhere near the limit her class could handle
