Hi Piet nee te lekker skou gehou! Het net gesien hy stop in die stasie en toe gekruis met 2 x 35s wat terug Bellville toe is ... het darem n foto van die 2 x 35s gekry by Bergrivier stasie vroeer..
Piet you have a good spot to video the trains with a lot of varieties thankyou. Does the area you cover one of the cities. And how far do the overhead wires go to.
Hi Ken, thanks for the view! I live in the northern suburbs of Cape Town, my home is about 200 meters from the mainline, I can hear trains passing by, but have no line of sight from my home. Many lines in South Africa are electrified, This one from Cape Town is electrified all the way to Johannesburg, 1600km distant. Many branch lines use diesel traction because these are non-electrified.

I love the whooooooo sound of the class 6 E cooling fans
Yes, those blowers have character !!! :)
Nice video. Many greetings and health
Your videos get better and better every time. I really loved hearing those 18E blowers on full blast at 1:23. Very nice driver too
The undisputed kings of the mainline! Hauling 2700 tons with a smile....
Baie mooi samestelling Piet
Amazing videos! One day I’d like to go to South Africa
Goeie video Piet! Ons was gister (29 Aug) by die Hopefield Fynbosskou toe kom die staal rolle daar verby op pad Saldanha toe.
