Since my wife and daughter were so tired that I decided to go to today's destination alone. After eating breakfast, I walked to Yuanlin Station and took local train to Zhanghua.

Breakfast
Fortunately, we arrived at the station 10 minutes before departure time of sugar train renovated for tourists.
The train began to move after train conductor shouted "准备好了吗? 五，四，三，二，一!(Are you ready? 5,4,3,2,1!)"
It took 20 minutes to get to Zhuoshui Station, where tentative markets for tourists are held.

and the sugar train returns to original station.
Since the rail line was originally built for transporting sugar cane, tracks are built on narrow roads.

I called the taxi by sending message to the taxi driver who sent us to Xihu Sugar Reginery. Though I was texting by Chinese letters, he understood what I was requesting. We went back to Yuanlin Station, and ate delayed lunch.
On our way back to the hotel, we dropped in at a supermarket to buy souvenir.
