昨天的火车

Yesterday’s Trains

在飞机、轮船、高铁、汽车这些现代化的交通工具方便我们生活的今天，蒸汽机车也就是老式火车，似平已经作为历史的一页被轻轻翻过，上了岁数的人们可以从记忆中、年轻人则可以从电影中搜寻到蒸汽机车的身影。可就在昨天，轰隆轰隆前进的蒸汽机车伴着时而霸道的汽笛声和肆无忌惮喷薄的白烟，这个庞然大物是那个年代绝对的运输行业主角。

Diaobingshan is Liaoning’s county-level city with highly convenient railway and highway transportation facilities.Within the county there are 15 railway lines specially built for the Tiefa Coal Industrial Group that connect with trunk railways extending to other parts of northeast China.This helps build up the Diaobingshan Steam Locomotive Museum,which displays 20 steam locomotives still good enough to run in today.It is also home to the upstream 1772 locomotive,the last of its kind manufactured in China,and one of the 50 KD6-487 steam locomotives which the United Nations presented to China in 1945.The four steam locomotives running to mines on the four railways are considered the living cultural relics that could be found in the world today.This turns the Diaobingshan Station Station into a mobile museum.Like antiques in Harry Potter movies,these age-old trains lure people to take the trains to the Harry Potter magic kingdom.
