Lijing mine - steam still lives

Lijing mine - steam still lives
I was told that steam was all but finished on the Hengshan system at Jixi. It was almost dark, well below freezing, and I was frozen to the marrow in the bitter wind. So why did I stay in the barren windswept wasteland that is Lijing Colliery?

And then there was action. SY 1018 arrived with coal empties and SY1344 departed with a trainload of spoil for the tip. 1600 ASA and 1/15 second at f5.6. I must be soft in the head.
