The spectacular scene of Changhong
The forest area is beautiful and colorful, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. The forest is vast, the peaks are towering, the mountains are overlapping, the ancient trees are towering, and precious tree species are all over Shan Ye. The virgin forest is simple and dignified, the pine and cypress comb the wind, and the wild flowers all over the mountains are colorful and refreshing. Dozens of animals, such as roe deer, deer and bear, inhabit and breed in the vast forest, often looming; Ginseng, Schisandra chinensis, Hericium erinaceus, Vitis amurensis and hundreds of natural medicinal materials, wild vegetables, wild fruits and fungi are all over the forest. However, all kinds of scenery are natural and do not need human help. If you want to find a kind of scenery in the forest area, built by foresters themselves, which combines production function and sightseeing value, I think: forest train is the first one.

The small forest train used to be an important part of people's life in forest areas, transporting hundreds of thousands of cubic meters of wood every year, and it was also the only means of transportation connecting mountains. Along the way, the small train in the forest farm village enters the station, which is the happiest time for mountain people. It can be said that the small train was a unique landscape in daily life at that time.
Long lines out of the mountain, the scene is spectacular!

Forest railway, also known as narrow gauge railway, is a unique railway in state-owned forest areas. With its exquisite beauty, the forest train shows the multiple effects of serving production, life and sightseeing, and becomes a famous and desirable landscape. Forestry Bureau used to have two railway lines: Donggou and Nangou.

Lovely forest children
When I was a child, I lived in the forest area for many years, when I was close to the forest railway. Taking a small forest train through the forest on the forest railway is quite different from driving on the forest highway. Because the forest is rich, dignified and endless green, there are only two thin lines on the railway track, and the green waves seem to reach into the long arm from the window and fly on the green waves with the motorcycle we ride.

The front of the small forest train is never as magnificent as the locomotive on the state-owned railway. In my opinion, it is like a boat sliding on the "green sea", leaving a deep and unforgettable green melody in people's hearts.

Manual shipment of timber
The bus fare of Sentie is very cheap, and the facilities on the bus are very complete. Every car has a policeman (forest policeman) and a conductor, as well as a car inspector and a conductor. He carries two flags, red and green. He waved the green flag and the car left.

The Sentie bus is like a fairy tale kingdom for the children in the forest area. Children have a strong curiosity. Climbing on the green minibus and playing with road signs and red and green flags will surprise the children. Sentie bus is the only means of transportation connecting mountains, especially the people in the forest farm, who run to the station as soon as they see the arrival of the small train. Enclosed in the mountains, the roar of the train sounds so close. Mountain people are looking forward to it bringing newspapers, books, movies, letters and daily necessities from relatives at the foot of the mountain. The bus group consists of several green hard-seat buses, hard-seat board seats, salute cars and cabooses. The staff bus management in Layun Mountain Forest Farm is still very formal, and the green hard-seat car is very bumpy to sit on.

In winter, the workers in the work area clean up the railway snow.
At that time, because my relatives were in Sentie, I had the experience of transporting wood out of the mountain by Sentie train. There is a (first) guard car hanging behind the small timber train. Take the forest railway train loaded with wood down the mountain, and add trailer skins at each station along the way to form long-distance transportation of wood. The train galloped along the mountain. For example, the black dragon goes out to sea and the tiger goes down the mountain, which is unstoppable. The mountain gives way, the clouds whistle, leaving a thousand peaks behind the car.

With the passage of time and the change of environment, the timber output has dropped sharply, and the figure of timber transportation highway has gradually concealed the glory of forest railway.
Now all major state-owned forest areas are stopping commercial logging, and timber trucks are out of people's sight. However, the image of the forest train will be fixed in the memory of the years and will never be erased.
