Suzhou Train Coach Attendant Removes Debris

China photos of Suzhou after train journey from Shanghai. Our travels in China to date, had been by bus, boat and plane, but for the journey from Shanghai to Suzhou, we traveled by train. The coach was very clean, with comfortable soft seats, and on freshly laundered cloths on each of the tables between the facing seats, stood a potted plant and a thermos flask of hot water. The coach attendant regularly checked whether thermos flasks or used ash trays needed replacing, and removed any empty cans or unwanted papers from the tables. A short time before we arrived at the Suzhou railway station, a trolley was brought round with "China Goods", and I bought a pair of red cushion covers with a gold landscape pattern.

Suzhou Street Near Embroidery Workshops

Suzhou streets in later years would be busy with lorries, taxis. The main streets of Suzhou were much wider and quieter than Shanghai, so the many cyclists were less troubled by cars and coaches and could move around quite leisurely. In the narrower street near the Suzhou embroidery workshops, there were cycle-rickshaws and loaded cycle-carts.
