I'm a Cape Town based South African railfan. I film videos mainly of Class 19D 3322 'Clare' operated by the Ceres Rail Company, but I also have a small collection of videos of Class 24 3655 'Jenny', operated by Ceres Rail, and Class 16DA 879 'Katie', operated by Atlantic Rail before the switch to Ceres Rail.

2024 - A Year In Review
Просмотров 31221 день назад
2024 was quite an eventful year in terms of trains for me. Over the span of 11 days throughout the year, I filmed well over 2 hours worth of footage, most of which was uploaded to my RUclips channel. The channel has since gained almost 400 subscribers and over 10k views on certain videos. So here is my 2024 year in review video, containing at least one clip from each of the 11 days on which I s...

Here's a short video of Ceres Rail Company's Class 19D 3322 'Clare' departing Harbour Bridge on the 30th of November 2024. Unfortunately, the train was delayed due to a technical issue, meaning I wasn't able to get the second shot I usually do. Thumbnail credit to Neil Shannon.

Delightful, love that Puffing,steaming engine and the carriages look good. Keep those wheels turning,
Nice scenery of the town and the steam locomotive.
beautiful engine.
Nice video and the rainbow shown while the train departed.
Stunning video! I also plan to have a day where we trainspot Jenny or Sylvia between Hartenbos and George this year.
Thanks! Have they started running Sylvia yet? I saw she was transported there a little while ago, but I haven't seen any pictures or videos of her running yet.
@ She has! But rarely I think. They said they were struggling with her injectors at a point or something a while ago, but yeah that’s all I know. We went the first time with her, it’s my next video so yeah!
The video has also uploaded so you can check it out if you want to 😄
@ Yes, I'm not surprised. Ceres Rail hadn't used her for a while by the time she was sold.
@MichaelShannon3322 Oh, why didn’t they use her?
Now there's no railway main line train service wrecked by a n c
Why the two diesel loco's
The steam loco itself doesn't have the power to pull the 14 coaches up Sir Lowry's Pass quickly enough, so they add the diesels to help with the gradient.
@MichaelShannon3322 thank you I now understand why.
Now that is the way to video a train, showing all the carriages, not just the locomotive and again and again the locomotive. Nice long train, thanks for sharing. 🎉

Such a good video
Thanks!
Happy new year
And to you!
Hii Micheal, great video! We’re going on the 27th. Hope you’ll be there, and maybe we’ll see eachother 😄👍
Ah, unfortunately not, I'll only back at trainspotting in the new year. maybe next time. Hope you have a great time!
@ we just got back, it was lots of fun, got some stunning views on the pass
A cool steam engine over in South Africa, good videoing.
Thanks!
Brings back the beautiful old days 😂😂
Good old days steam engines fascinate me steam is amazing..
So cool
Lekker ou dae❤😂
Beautifull ❤ my Dads Regular Loco was also a 19 Dolly in Springfontein Free State in Early 1980's. Number was 3349.
I love the video
Thanks!
На мазуте.
She’s coal fired
2:36 2:45 2:48
Nice capture
Amazing
Thanks!
Thanx : Great Video .... But may I humbly suggest that you invest in a Wind-Protector Cover for your microphone ... 🤙
Amazing! I haven't seen videos on this trip yet! Thanks!
Thanks! This is the first time Ceres Rail have done a trip to Mamre.
@@MichaelShannon3322 Wow! I’ll be experiencing Ceres Rail’s trip from Cape Town to Simon’s Town this December - very excited for that trip!
We were on that trip - loved it - well done to /ceres rail and the team at Mamreweg!
Speeding over a green Swartland
Mamreweg
Departure is awesome ,showing all the steam 👌 😎
Took the Ceres steam train to Mamre yesterday [24th September 2024] Heritage Day trip to Darling Wine Cellars at Mamre. Hugely enjoyable. Travelled on the Trans Karoo in the early 1960s - 1963? - when I think the class 25 condensers were in operation at Beaconsfield? I miss the smell of a real coal fire in the fire box, but understand the reason for converting to oil. Of all the trips that I've done with the Ceres train, the trip to Ceres itself has been the best.
Great to hear! Video of the trip to Darling is coming soon!
@@MichaelShannon3322 Great - look forward to seeing it.
My father would have loved this video He passed 8/8/23
Thank you. May he rest in peace 🙏
Netjies Hawkin
Nice video, it actually looks like it was filmed a long time ago
Thanks! The scenery and lack of modern infrastructure really sells the look.
@@MichaelShannon3322 sure does!
0:41 nice whistle 👍
Nice video, thanks for sharing. Robertson station looks good. Looking forward to more steam videos.
Love it , thanks
Never seen green coaches before in SA.
The old blue train coaches that became the Drakensberg in 1972 were a similar green livery.
@Nathan93Baker, years ago the Drakensberg Express train had Green Coaches!
No way, steam locos are running again! I'll have to get myself a ticket!
bro has a TERRIBLE camera
My camera films in HD quality, it's really not that bad.
Golden video
Thanks you so much!
Good one👍
Wow good 👍❤
What route did you take from Capetown departure to southern peninsula track? Did you travel via Retreat station ?
The train heads from Cape Town to Belville, turns around at Belville towards Maitland. Just past Maitland, it takes the line that passes Observatory, Rondebosch etc. This passes through Retreat on the way to Simon's Town. They take the same route back from Simon's Town to Cape Town.
What sound equipment are you using at the moment?
I'm currently stuck with the built-in microphone on my camera because it doesn't have any input ports
You really had a tough time with the wind. This for me was our best chase in ages. A huge thank you to Neil for driving us.
A 19 Dolly without the Vanderbilt tender is a disaster.
Awesome 🤩
My favourite video so far. 👌
So mooi... SAR / SAS lokomitiewe het die mooiste fluite in die hele wêreld
Baie dankie! Ja, hulle fluite is so pragtig hier!
@@MichaelShannon3322 Jip! Jy moet 'n video van die "Jenny" gaan maak as jy kan. Sy loop tussen Hartenbos en Grootbrak. Haar fluit is pragtig.. Dis my gunstelling fluit.
@@Antloo2009 Ja! Ek hoop om uiteindelik een te doen, maar sy is nogal ver van waar ek gebaseer is, so die reis is vir eers buite my begroting. Hoop volgende jaar kan ek haar uiteindelik gaan sien. Ek het wel 'n paar video's op die kanaal van haar vanaf Oktober 2022, maar net een het haar fluit.
@@MichaelShannon3322 Oo oukei, ek kan dit verstaan. Ten minste teen volgende jaar se tyd sal sy van Hartenbos (of dalk Mossbaai) na Goerge toe ry. Sy sal oor maalgate se brug ry en deur een tonnel net so na Grootbrak. Jy sal mooi videos van haar kan kry. Sy ry tussen vakansie tye.
@@Antloo2009 Ja, 'n vriend van my het 'n paar maande gelede soontoe gery. Hy het goeie foto's gekry, hoewel hy nêrens sy werk plaas nie.
