Hi all.
First sighting for today was blue 34 037, heading light loco towards the exchange yard near Welkom showgrounds.
Next stop was at Bloemhof. While waiting for a North bound train we noticed the ballast tamping machine had been past recently. This action has "unearthed" a lot of broken pieces of crockery. We found a piece of a SAR plate with a green Coat of arms, a piece of a cup with green Flying Springbok "Vlermuis", a piece from a porridge plate with blue Spoornet trim. A another piece from a cup with a yellow rim and the bottom part of a plate with "Royal Albert England" on it. All our crockery is made by Continental and some ancient pieces from England - but nothing from Royal Albert. Les P, can you help us here ??
Soon 3 x blue 18E's came past on a long load of mielies, hooting from the crew. Leading was E 18 070 and trailing was E 18 063.
Last sighting was a pair of orange 6E's on a South bound load of containers. Leading was E 1252, again hooting form the crew. In this load we noticed open containers - containers with no roof, carrying some sort of bulk mineral ??
Greetings.
J & J.
