In 1984, Jilin was Pacific City. Virtually every passenger service in or out was hauled by a Pacific. Jilin was famous for being the last stamping ground of the SLs but there were Xinzhan based RMs on Tumen line services as well. Unfortunately we didn't get any decent RM shots and even struggled with the SLs. Here, SL681 is seen leaving Jiangbei, across the river from Jilin, on a train from Wuchang on the Harbin line.
