Sightings










Hi Guys.



The 2x ex Queensland diesels were coming back from the exchange yard near the old showground's. Here they are passing us at "Niemandsland" en-route to Welkom station. No idea why they are "double heading". Maybe a once in a lifetime shot!

Then one of Sheltam's 31 classes passed us on her way to 4 and 5 shaft.

At Hennenman we got a Kroonstad bound fuel train returning empty, within minutes the South bound car train sped past.

Seems like the "new" running times for goods trains on the Free State main line are proving much better to get trains! Normally these working were early mornings of late evenings. Even worse when running late, sometimes so late that we actually got them during daylight hours!

Cheers.
J & J.
