Train 74205


Friday, 1st May 2009

Train 74205, the "month-end Fridays only" Shosholoza Meyl Tourism from Johannesburg to East London is seen southbound near Meyerton behind class 6E1 E1593 in original SAR red livery. The train is ferrying two new coaches to East London for Kei Rail, an Eastern Cape provincial government initiative that has seen passenger rail service reintroduced between Amabele and Umtata.

This is a first time contribution from Eugene Armer. What a great scoop with the Kei Rail coaches attached. Look forward to many more from Eugene as he is very active in the modern scene.

When I get a chance, will put up some more pictures of the Kei Rail project sent from Sheltam.
