While looking for Australian steam clips, I ran into this--steam in North Korea, apparently Chinese built, but not looking too well maintained, and not sounding too good in at least one segment: http://www.youtube.com/user/newslabmedia/videos?view=0 Be sure to check out the narrow-gauge segments, particularly No. 5 (of 8 total), and take note of the fuel used in what I think is a Japanese 2-8-0. |

I think some Alco stock engines were set up with indirect forward also.....and a lot of Chinese practice seems to be based on Alco design. Sommebody with a much deeper base of Chinese steam development hisory needs to comment on this. dave |
