I have just returned from Welkom station to see RRL's new arrival.
They left Cor Delfos yesterday at 09:00 and due to TFR pilot problems at Leeuhof and Sasolburg they only arrived here this morning at 01:30.
This loco is going to be here for a month for tests. It is going to do the Dar es Salaam trip for Rovos Rail I am told. Had some foot plating while the other drivers were getting some training. The 35 07 is clearly stuck over "RM****P01".
Some more news from the Westleigh - Orkney line is that early next we can expect 3x 120 truck coal trains per day on this line, increasing as the output of the mine does. Kroonstad are getting class 43 diesels for this.
Cheers.
J & J.
