Caption - SY class 2-8-2's 0441 and 0902 at Anshan steel works in January 1994. The SYs were the last class of steam locos built in China and were designed for industrial use. Production lasted from from 1960 to 1999 with 1820 examples built at the Tangshan factory. Three were purchased by American steam railroads but sadly one was lost at sea when the ship sunk during a Cyclone.
