- 1967, Yuan-li Wu, The Spatial Economy of Communist China‎, Frederick A. Praeger Publishers, LCCN 67-20739, OCLC 860169638, page 155:
  Until 1957, military and connecting lines were proportionately more important in new railway construction than in later years. Military considerations also appeared to be an important factor in railway building prior to the "Great Leap" period. Of the four new military lines (Lai-pin to Mu-nan-kuan, Li-t'ang to Chan-chiang, Ying-t'an to Amoy, and Chi-ning to Erh-lien), the first two are clearly designed to provide logistic support for Chinese activities in Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam. The early completion of these lines supports the thesis that the Chinese Communist Party decided a decade or more ago to increase its influence in Southeast Asia.
- 1974, D. J. Dwyer, editor, China Now: an Introductory Survey with Readings‎, Longman, →ISBN, LCCN 73-87225, OCLC 963067253, OL 5438328M, page 222:
  If the construction continues at its present speed, the Lan-chou—Hsin-chiang line will probably join the Soviet section at the Ala Shan Pass before the end of 1961. When completed, it not only will serve as the third link between mainland China and the Soviet Union but will also provide the Communist bloc with one more outlet to warm water, running diagonally across China to the great new seaport of Chan-chiang.
- 1976 March, JeNelle Matheson, Construction Equipment A Market Assessment for the People's Republic of China‎, U.S. Department of Commerce, OCLC 2467783, page 8:
  The channel at Chan-chiang is being dredged to a depth of 50 feet enabling tankers of 70,000 tons to call.
- 1977, CIA, China Oil Production Prospects‎, page 31:
  The crude is transshipped from Chan-chiang by rail to the refinery at Mao-ming. A rumored pipeline under construction from Chan-chiang to Mao-ming has not been confirmed.
