  And so, unfortunately, this great and spreading network of railways, that recently showed such promise as a major instrument in the modern development of China, must be left for the time being in the melting-pot of Armageddon.

(by extension) Any end of the world, especially by way of a cataclysmic battle or something analogous to one.
