Beitai Steelworks - The Most Explosive Video of 2011?

Probably not. But it was pretty hot. Fast forward to the last 2 minutes or so if you are getting bored with the build up to the main event. Filmed on the Far Rail Tour to North East China in December 2011. The title is reference to the 3 other gricers who were filming that day and not to any other explosion elsewhere in the world in 2011. Beitai Steelworks at Benxi, Liaoning, north east China, had 9 SY 2-8-0 locomotives for shunting around the plant taking molten iron to the steelworks (out of bounds) and for dumping hot slag. They also have a steam crane for laying or removing track and lifting heavy equipment. Steam ended here in 2013. Extracts from this video have been used by Ballet Cymru (Wales) and Vice TV, who even paid me for it.
