Your welcome
Lekker man,can't wait to see these freshly painted 38s for myself one day. Do you take pictures and film at the same time?
@@marval44039 I just use my phone yes, the problem is I'm lazy to carry my camera and set up everything unless maybe I was prepared for the day....
Hi, so does that lovely Aussie diesel and the two electric units return to cape town and the 38s take the train the rest of the trip? If the Aussie diesel and electric units return to cape town I'd love to know where they are kept so I can get some photos or even video.
@@Galactic-Jack1978 Good day. Nope these were two different sets of trains... The first part of the video with the Australian EMDGL26C was from Cape town heading to PTA from there to Tanzania.
The second video is the usual PTA to CPT set....
Nowadays they run with their locomotives straight to Cape town and back. First they used to store them in Kimberley then proceed with transnet locomotives.
Vacuum brake? And I see the ex Queensland Rail GM.
@@stanleyj.mitchell4851 vacuum yes sir... And yep Australian EMDGL26C was being relieved by the electrics
@@EverythingTrains95 Excellent. Vacuum brake in Australia was in Western Australia, Queensland and I think Tasmania. I was a train driver in Western Australia. There is a locomotive going there from Western Australia called the DBZ class. Around 2500 horsepower I think. Keep a lookout. Good engine and very reliable. Oh, and thanks for the videos.
@@stanleyj.mitchell4851 will certainly do ....
And it's a pleasure 🙏🏿
