Hi all. Yesterday we visited Senekal station. The station is ruined, no roof and no door/window frames. The goods shed is still standing. Operating told us that the line sees at least one train a week. The line to Marquard is closed and getting very overgrown.
Winburg was also visited and the same story here but still has a roof. Some of the loops in the station area are laid with ANCIENT rails with a round crown, we spotted N.G.R. and C.G.R. 1888 !!!! The line looks fair but operating states that it needs maintenance as it is not safe to send a train down the line.
Just returned from a nice visit at Sheltam and a footplate ride on the mine system. Saw the cabooses being fitted for Their African operations.
Booking off.
John & Jacque.
