China in 1981 – Everyday Life, Cities & Steam Trains

Step back into China in 1981 through this original vintage film footage. This 11-minute collection captures scenes of everyday life, people on the streets, historic sights in Peking (Beijing) and other areas of China, railway stations, and plenty of steam locomotives and trains traveling through China. Much of the footage was not specifically labeled with locations, so if you recognize a city, railway station, locomotive, landmark, or anything else shown in the film, please leave a comment. I'd love to identify more of these scenes. This footage was originally filmed in 1981on 8mm film and has been preserved and digitized for a new generation to experience.
