China Wuhan Steelworks 31st October 1983

            Wuhan Steelworks and YJ 2-6-2 YJ227 has just come out of the shed. Nice sunshade on the driver's cab window!

The YJ design is based on pre-war PL2 class 2-6-2, itself derived from the JF6 2-8-2, the predecessor of the well known SY class mikado. According to Chinese sources a total of 202 locos were produced between 1958 and 1961. Jinan built 117, Tangshan 80, Wuchang 2 and Mudanjiang 3. It appears that Tangshan built the lower numbered locos while Jinan produced those numbered above 200.
