Changhua Roundhouse  
      Then we walked to the roundhouse, which was established in 1922 and became a cultural relic through rescue in 1994. In 2010, the steam train was repaired, and there are four steam locomotives

 Reflection

CK101, CK124, CT273 and DT668 and a steam crane preserved in the roundhouse. Suddenly the turntable turned to No.1 roundhouse, R68 locomotive pulled the train, later it turned to No.5 roundhouse, and R122 locomotive came, then returned to No.5 roundhouse after a 180°turning. Seeing the two trains coming in and out of the roundhouse, we really experienced the most beautiful dynamic train performance in Taiwan.

 

Shop of railway fans  

      Then we walked to the shop of Chao-ting Yang, where a model of self-assembled large train worth 700,000NTD was displayed, while appreciating, everyone rushed to purchase the railway souvenir. In the evening, we arrived at Shetou Station by train, and went to the “Two Water Restaurant” which is famous in China and Japan. The boss Chao-chiang Chen showed various cultural relics diligently, everyone enjoyed the delicious railway lunch and kept the sense of happiness in mind. It is expected that more local people would concern the change of environment and plan and create the characteristic routes in Yuanlin earlier.
