Taiwan Steam--1965
Author: glibby

These photos were taken in late 1965 in downtown Taipei, Taiwan, where the main railroad line crossed under Chung Shan North Road and at the locomotive facility near that location.

How interesting!
Made a week long business trip to Taiwan in 1989 and again in 1991.  Of course, steam was gone.  Only got to do a little railfanning.

Really nice pictures. Taken by you? Where you visiting or living there?
I lived in Taiwan during my youth, during these years.
I have published two books.

Photo 3 would make a great 'Caption this' post.

Wow!  These are just fantastic; the armstrong turntable is great, and look at all those interlocking rods!  Good human interest shots which are all too often overlooked in the railfan world.
