Free State sightings
Hi all.
The first sighting for today was at Welkom station, RRL 36 01.
Wesselsbron silos had plenty of mielie trucks for a change and all three Senwes locos were busy shunting the trucks up and down.
Just after Losdorings we got orange 34 031 on a short load of mielies heading to Kroonstad, orange van at the rear. All the silos from there to Bothaville had traffic.
At Schuttesdraai the two accident damaged FZ's are in the process of being cut up. Only the bogies of one remains and a "skeleton" of the second.
At Leeudoringstad the Spoorbaan were busy on the line, also for some reason the grass was being cut all around the station area. Just after Leeudoringstad we noticed the Southbound signals green. Near Daalder we got 5x 6E's on a long load of coal, leading was orange E 1634 and two more orange and two SAR maroon siblings.
We got this train again at Makwassie, from here on no more trains. Only near Kingswood a northbound Isuzu bakkie on the rails heading to Klerksdorp. Plenty of mielie trucks at Bloemhof.
Greetings.
J & J.
