Before sunrise on a very cold morning two C2 class 2-8-2 NG locomotives prepare for duty in Huanan shed yard.  C2 number 004 then departs with empty wagons. 
It is then seen crossing the snow covered plain before climbing to the mine. 
At Tuoyaozi village it passes a double headed ox powered sledge.
A C2 rumbles downhill heading for Huanan with a load of coal.
A Lixin, a train arrives from the mine stopping to have a banking loco attached before it  starts the steady climb to the summit on the way to Huanan. 
Filmed January 2008.  Sadly this line has now closed.
