Notes
The bond was issued to finish the Shanghai-Hangchow-Ningpo-Railway and to buy rolling stock. Most of the proceedings were used to finance a bridge across the River Chien Tang. The bridge was finished on 20 November 1937. It was only for four days in operation. To stop the advance of Japanese troops the bridge was blown up.
