Yuanbaoshan mine is situated in Inner Mongolia 20kms south of Chiefeng.  Steam activity at Yuanbaoshan is now at  a low ebb.
What at first looks like a train making good progress up the gentle incline soon turns out to be just a light engine.  Despite the lack of a train, the JS makes a fine sight in the morning sunshine.
The light engine is followed by a small rail-bus pulling a short works train.
This is followed in turn by the JS pushing a ballast train.  Note the flagman and the brake man standing at the end of the leading wagon.
Filmed December 2011
