Klapmuts derailment






The train derailed at Klapmuts near Stellenbosch on Thursday evening (2011/04/21). Locomotives stayed on the tracks. Les Kenward visited the clear up and captured the dramatic scenes. The OREX breakdown train was sent to assist.

These pictures were taken on the Saturday.

More pictures to follow.
