An Extinct Species?
Many of the 'photters' on my 2015 FarRail tour to China avoided diesel locomotives like the plague . Not quite extinct yet, but the reality is that the era of steam locomotion in China is almost over with the inevitability that diesels will likely soon replace the few remaining steam trains in operation. In this shot the headlights of a DF5D diesel locomotive illuminate standing SY locomotive, 1359. Shot taken in Fuxin city at 23:15 in sub zero temperatures, North-Western Liaoning Province, People's Republic of China.
