Hailar Depot (2)

14th October 1992

A general view of the lines at the depot entrance with sand tower to the left and coaling hopper to the right, with leaning stage behind. One of the steam coaling cranes stands in the centre.

Cleaning of locomotives was undertaken at a staging alongside the coal mound.

JS No.5173 having been turned, sets off for pilot duties around the station.

An interesting feature was this board with photographs of the depot staff.
