Recently, I have my mind full of Yuanlin Railway, I have explored and decrypted a lot of questions and understood the particularity of Yuanlin Railway, 110 years’ environment change and shock. Currently, the elevated railway has brought convenience, but the nostalgic Yuanlin Railway memory has been adrift rapidly, really pitiful. Trains and rails serve people day and night silently, but at the crossing of destruction and construction, how to find a perfect balance point among the living environment, construction reform and historical cultural relics and make the good memory and story of Yuanlin Railway historical culture active in people’s mind forever needs everyone’s wisdom and action. Participating in the deep research of Yuanlin Railway makes me thrive. I’m sure the love to family, school and hometown is not a slogan, but a decisive action.

I Will Continue to Care the Yuanlin Railway Text/Yu-shuo Chang
For me, participating in the Cyberfair project is worthier than reading books for ten years. In the past half a year, I learned a lot of railway knowledge of hometown, starting from being a layman to a railway fan gradually. Not only did I talk about activities of the Yuanling Railway with friends at school, but it also became the conversational topic in my family. I enjoyed it so much every time when we had interview or prepared for an activity. Previously, I only heard or read about it, but now we get to follow the teacher to explore it. It is so fun! Thanks to the teacher and parents for the guidance and the Jingsiou Vanguard Team for the cooperation. It’s a wonderful and memorable experience. I will continue to care and protect the Yuanlin Railway culture. Thanks!
Teachers
Jingsiou Vanguard Team is excellent
Text / Teacher Hsiang-ting 2015.2.10
I have participated in Cyberfair for four successive years, I wanted to have a rest for a year, but I could not give up the research on this historical significant topic, and could bear that the memory of Yuanlin Railway for 100 years disappear with the elevated railway, so Jingsiou Vanguard Team was formed before demolition of Yuanlin Railway.
Dominated by residence, the environmental topic of the railway community and school was “Love Yuanlin Railway”, through the data collection, on-the-spot survey, interview, questionnaire, tour lecture, breakthrough making, color drawing, cultural relic rescue, we constructed the blueprint of children to the railway historical relics in their hometown from the full action, experienced the particularity and universality of alternation between community environmental tradition and modern times. Through the deep thinking of interview and role play, Jingsiou Vanguard Team paid and provided service actively, triggering the anti-shape effect among the community residents and classmates, the back-flush effect was resounded in Yuanlin Railway and Jingsiou Campus. Starting the discussion, we shouldered the responsibility of maintaining environment and preserving the hometown culture and inheritance.
Although it was somewhat difficult to achieve the research objective completely, Jingsiou Vanguard Team really planned carefully and acted efficiently, and I was often moved by the team members for their work attitude, and applauded for their work out of imagination. As the leading teacher, I would say in public loudly, “Jingsiou Vanguard Team is so great! Let’s pass down the love to Yuanlin Railway…”.
Small action in Huangxi moved others Text / Teacher Mei-tu
In recent years, I have been absorbed in Love Yuanlin Railway, guided Jingsiou Vanguard Team to set up the Chinese and English websites and participated in the Cyberfair in 2015. At the end of the activity, when looking back, I suddenly felt heroes come from the young. Through the action research of great environmental change before and after the construction of Yuanlin Elevated Railway, I felt it was not only the construction of research website with texts and illustrations and the construction of Jingsiou Station education station to remove the barrier between campus and community. But this is just the beginning, after the Cyberfair, there will be a lot of follow-up actions to be planned!
Memorizing the experiencing of train with children in the past, in 2005, I compiled Love An old Man of Hundreds of Years-Yuanlin Railway Zhizai Road, which won the literature award of Huangxi Report, my youngest daughter studying in Jingsiou Elementary School said she wanted to be a little writer in Huangxi, and I replied to her with smile, “OK, OK, OK! You will surely become a writer!” Unexpectedly, 10 years passed soon, seeing the so great action research of Jingsiou Vanguard Team, I had the anti-shape education of Yuanlin Railway environment. After the construction of Yuanlin Elevated Railway, there has been an atmosphere “we only see the smile of new railway, but not the crying of the old railway”. The environmental campaign of “Love Yuanlin Railway” of course triggered a flush-back effect in the school and residence. If I should evaluate in a neutral manner, I will give a score of 100 for the super efficiency of Jingsiou Vanguard Team. From the overall performance, the team members indeed are qualified to become the little activists in Huangxi. The extremely precious achievements make us moved, and I’m proud of Jingsiou Vanguard Team.
Investment, Breakthrough, Sublimation Text / Chih-yung Lin
I always embraced the challenge and learning when guiding the students in the Cyberfair project. In the beginning, I was very stressed when the progress was behind due to the students’ limited computer techniques and inexperience. However, after putting in more effort, they learned to be able to think and solve problems independently, which makes me proud of them.
