Interesting locomotive, note the cast trailing truck. I find it off because the locomotives that were working up until recently on the mainline were less technologically advanced in some ways. I'm wondering where this locomotive was manufacturered in China. Also I'm wondering how it survived the great "Cultural Revolution" of Mao's later years. Express service seems so "counterrevolutionary". Still it might look pretty good charging across the countryside.

This locomotive is made by Japs, in fact, the quality even better than the loco which made in China in 1950-60s, thus the loco can keep in using.

Actually this locomotive was created by Dalian Locomotive Works in conjunction with Kawasaki.
