Bultfontein


We have seen the first sketches of the stamps that
are being designed & will be issued for the 150 year
rail anniversary next year.

GREAT STUFF !!!!

Yesterday we caught Spoornet maroon 34 453 leading
orange 34 028 arriving with a load of mielies at Bultfontein.

Friedesheim was visited today and we were amazed to
see that almost the entire shunting yard has been uplifted
sleepers, point and all. Where Transnet has stopped the
thieves have carried on. Found a 1925 coach screw in the ballast.
Caught one of RRL's blue 35's heading to Odendaalsrus here.

Philatelic greetings,
John & Jacque.
