It could build a railway from Qingdao to Jinan to run across Lu. After the Germans occupied the Jiaozhou Bay, the German Shinjuku planned to build a railway. In just three months, the survey design was launched. After three months, the railway was fully started, and the Sifang locomotive factories were built to adjust the parts.

A large red and black locomotive displayed at the door of the museum attracted the attention of the players. The interpreter talked about the structure and functions of the locomotive. Facing a few meters of the locomotive, the team members lamented that the centuries of storms and vicissitudes.
