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!

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.

My father would have loved this video He passed 8/8/23

Nice video, it actually looks like it was filmed a long time ago

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.

No way, steam locos are running again! I'll have to get myself a ticket!

bro has a TERRIBLE camera

Golden video

Good one👍

Wow good 👍❤

What route did you take from Capetown departure to southern peninsula track? Did you travel via Retreat station ?

What sound equipment are you using at the moment?

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

Indonesia hadir

Die loko is baie goed opgepas en onderhou. Probeer asb die windgeraas op die videos uitsny.

Hou die kamera stil 😂 het julle nie so 'camera stand' of iets nie?

Could have been decent video--GET YOUR AUDIO TOGETHER

So wonderful to see someone is making the effort to keep these beauties going. Well done.

I once was pulled by a dolly between Vryburg and Mafeking with 13 coaches, the climb out of Vryburg was slow but it didn't slip and once on the planes it was just like the video.

Goeie,ou dae.

I am going to be there in a few days 🙌this is very interesting 😅

Why were there two diesel locos being hauled as well. So many more tons being hauled???

Nice. Is there no longer a wye in Malmesbury?

Gee, that oil-burner gives off a mess!

Magnificent catches of the train coming by and pass, I like it 5 stars. Thumbs up. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, just liked and subscribed, Greetings from Portugal to South Africa.

Nice

The wind was pretty hectic on this day.

Shoutout to everyone who waved in Coach 11!

Keep out of the wind .

Nice compilation there Michael. I see I make an unknowing appearance 😅

I travelled this route from Cape Town to Elgin on an S&V Camp in 1955, and it was pulled by a single steam loco. Why did this trip have to incorporate the assistance of TWO DIESEL-ELECTRIC units (or so it would seem)? I am now eighty years young, and am still loving everything to do with steamers!

Thank you

Why does it carry the oil thing behind its tender ( l don’t know what it’s called) ?

Beautiful train mind go to fast .

I travelled on this line from CT to Botrivier when it was still up and running during the earlygb 1960s, and once from Lebanon siding or Grabouw to CT in early 1967. I was a pupil forester at Lebanon forest st. about 20 km east of Grabouw and was travelling officially to George to study forestry at the foresters college. It took more than 5 hours to reach Cape Town. From there I took the "milk train" to George, slept on the train overnight and arrived the afternoon of the following day. That was the steam train era. Today they would call it laid by. But looking back it was a wonderful era. The landscape was not nearly as built up as today. The steam locos regularly ignited fires in the Grabouw forestry plantations in summer, in spite of spark arrestors.
