Sightings

Hi all.

Not much this week.

We found the Spoorbaan busy on the line close to Virginia. Later we learnt that the Welgelee substation between Welgelee and Virginia was flooded over the weekend and resulted in a closure of the line. Normal running only started again on Monday afternoon.

Close to Cronnell we got the empty Northbound petrol train behind two orange 6E's, E 1262 & E xxxx, greetings from the crew. We followed this train to Hennenman.

Blue 34 499 came in from Wesselsbron with a load of Mielies and Ammonia tankers, this was between Friedesheim and Welkom, greetings from the crew. At the same spot we got RRL 33 02 heading a load of hoppers towards Friedesheim. It is a pleasure to see this loco in our area...

Sheltam and Harmony Surface Rail were seen as usual.

Greetings.
J & J.
