From 2000 onwards, all the steam locomotives at the mainline have been replaced by diesel or electric locomotives. However, some of the local railway (such as the famous Jitong line at Inner Mongolia), quarry railway and industrial lines still use steam locomotives. The nearest place where steam locomotives are used is inside Guangzhou Steelwork (Information up to 4/2002). There are some internet websites (for example, Rob Dickinson's International Steam homepage) have regular reports. For steam train information about Guangdong Province.
