Should it be Peking or Peiping? — Insta ntnood 21:13, 24 February 2007 (UTC) reply

Insta: It used to be "Peking", before being named "Peiping", according to this source. ( Verheyen Vincent ( talk) 07:42, 20 September 2016 (UTC)) reply

I'll just note some pictures here which could sooner or later be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons (if, after careful analysis, they are considered to be "free" enough in their license, for Commons; which will happen at some point in the end for all of them). Any help would be welcome:

• Railway tunnel along the Beijing-Hankow (today's Wuhan) railway line, in China
• The Peking-Hankow Limited Flyer (1916). THE OLD AND THE NEW IN LOCMOTIVES
• Wills Cigarette Card Railway Engines No 30 Peking-Hankow Railway China
• A map of the track
• Tunnel of the line, where the Yellow River is visible (right)
• The only real technical difficulty along the route was the construction of a bridge over 3,000 metres long spanning the Yellow River. The first locomotives crossed this bridge in June 1905. Copyright : Private collection
• This traction equipment was used on the Beijing – Hankou line. Copyright : Private collection
• Some more pictures can be found via BNP Paribas or perhaps in the book "Il treno di sir Charles".
• Jing Han tie lu tu ---cartographic material--- = Map of Peking-Hankow railway. / 880-04 ---Shanghai---: Shanghai shang wu yin shu guan, Xuantong yuan nian ---1909--- / Scale 1:1,500,000 / 1 Chinese inch to 100 Chinese mile. / Relief shown by hachures.
• More pictures of the publication which entails the previous item, see also here or here, or alongside a detailed English description as well as more pictures here (main article here).
• Some pictures can be found here, in a French text or here, in the Dutch version (pictures differ between languages).
• This is probably very interesting, in relation to Zhang Zhidong: Reformist official Zhang Zidong (with white beard) inspects construction of the Peking-Hankow railway, 1903 / 1903年张之洞下火车官员迎接场面
• Here one sees a map of the track, this was originally published in French in "Le Mouvement Géographique (No. 28, 1906); which is by the "National Institute of Geography in Brussels". To upload this image, one might need to verify that the creator of the originally French article has died long enough ago. I have not been able to retrieve the name of the author of that French article. However, this could easily be retrieved by consulting the mentioned issue "No. 28" via a library in belgium or elsewhere. ( Verheyen Vincent ( talk) 09:35, 20 September 2016 (UTC)) reply
