I believe the P8 also did see service in China, not sure how many were shipped there

Hi,

it is a nice loco, it is made in Prussia, it has a "German" - impression and a German tender, But it is no P8. Typical for the P8 is the larger distance between the second and third drive-axle. That's missing. To compare: https://de.wikipedia.org...22_Wolsztyn_12.10.05.jpg

Regards

Markus

These five Jiaoji Railway TH4 (or class 300) 4-6-0 steamers were produced in 1913 (during the Prussian P8 production period) by the P8 manufacturer Schwartzkopff in Germany.

I remember seeing the SL7 at the Shenyang Railway Museum when we migrated from NZ to the UK in 1997.

I traveled by rail from Beijing to Shenyang in 1977. We were probably pulled by one of the buggers.BigGrin
