Be of one heart and mind to implement the four modernisations

Taken on 9 April 1988, China Rail 4-6-2 SL 626 climbs the grade away from Longquan (on the outskirts of Changchun) with Train 95 from Changchun to Jilin. I had also photographed it just three hours earlier working into Changchun on Train 534 from Jilin.

 

SL 626 was probably built in China's at the Sifang Works in late 1957.

 

Thanks to Robin Gibbons the headboard can be translated to read something like "Be of one heart and mind to implement the four modernisations!"
