Man it is so sad to see that this was all filmed in the 2000s and it all ended in the 2010s man wish we were all able to see it when it was still around.
Chinese steam is such a neat aesthetic. Wish they would have kept the KF Class Northerns in service for a bit longer. Dont think Ive ever seen footage of them running. They really like the Mikes, Sante Fe's and Prairies
I don't think your viewpoint is quite right. The JF6 class was more similar to a smaller and lighter design of the JF1 class and the JF1 class was more similar to a much smaller and lighter version of the USRA light Mikado. The JF6s(which were built by Japan) were built between 1933 and 1945 and the S200s were built in 1942. Some JF6s were built much earlier than S200s, so that the JF6 class wasn't a S200 design.
