This, the second line of the outer semicircle, starts by continuing the
first line at Suiyuan, and proceeds along the left bank of the Ussuri
River, passing Kaulan, Fuyeu, and Minkang, to Yaoho, where it meets
the terminus of the Tungchin-Yaoho line. From Yaoho, it runs parallel
to the Russian Ussuri Railway on the east side of the river as far as
Fulin. After Fulin, it parts from the Russian line by turning westward
following the Mulingho River to Mishan on the northwestern corner of
the Hanka Lake. Thence it goes to Pinganchin, turns southward alongside
the boundary line and crosses the Harbin-Vladivostok line at Siusuifen
Station to Tungning. After Tungning, it continues the same southward
course alongside the boundary line to a point between Szetaukow and
Wutaukow, then turns westward to Hunchun, and northwestward to Yenchi
where it meets the projected Japanese Hweining-Kirin line. From Yenchi,
it follows the Japanese line to Holung, and proceeds southwestward by
the left side of the Tumen River across the watershed into the Yalu
Valley, where it meets the Tungchin-Changpeh line. After Changpeh it
turns westward and northwestward following the right bank of the Yalu
to Linkiang, thence southwestward, still following the right bank of
the Yalu, to Tsianhsien and then continues in the same direction, along
the Yalu bank, to Antung, where it meets the Antung-Mukden Railway.
After Antung, it proceeds to Tatungkow at the mouth of the Yalu, thence
along the coast to Takushan and Chwangho, then westward through Situn
and Pingfangtien to join the South Manchurian Railway at Wukiatun. This
line covers a distance of 1,100 miles, which runs from end to end right
along the southeastern boundary of Manchuria.
q. The Linkiang-Dolon Nor Line
This is the third line of the outer semicircle of the Tungchin railway
center, and connects the radiating lines south of the center. It
starts from Linkiang at the southwestward turn of the Yalu River, and
proceeds across the mountainous region passing by Tunghwa, Hingking,
and Fushun, to Mukden, where it crosses the South Manchurian Railway.
From Mukden, it goes together with the Peking-Mukden line as far
as Sinmin, where it crosses the Tungchin-Hulutao line and proceeds
northwestward through Sinlihtun to Fowsin. After Fowsin the line
enters the hilly district of the upper Liaoho Valley, and proceeds to
Chihfeng, after passing through numerous small villages and camping
places in this vast pasture. After Chihfeng the line proceeds through
the Yinho Valley by Sanchotien, Kungchuling, and Tachientse, to Famuku,
thence follows the Tulakanho to Dolon Nor, covering a distance of about
500 miles.
