RRL welkom Station










Hi Guys.

First impressions of these diesels are that they look small. On the footplate they look old.

They have been re-sprayed and that's basically it. The drivers call them "Coca Cola Diesels" due to the white stripes on the locos.

No one can give me the original numbers. Looks like they are here for between 2 weeks and 2 months.

They told us they are similar to class 35 200 series. They have dual controls like the 36 classes. I saw a "pipe colour code reference" on one loco which has been painted over, it gives reference to a "drinking water pipe".

At least the air-conditioning works! I did not see any hot plate?

Cheers.
J & J.
