Early mornings were a good time to be around Jiuzhan, the second station out of Jilin on the Changchun line, in 1989. There were two passenger trains scheduled to pass between 07:00 and 07:30, both diagrammed for SL6 Class Pacifics. SL 678 is seen here curving out of Jiuzhan with the eastbound train, 531, the 03:30 from Changchun to Jilin, on 24 February 1989.
