Sun City Diesel

[John Ashworth]

The 37 class converted high speed diesel seen here at Capital Park with her
corporate colours. They had changed gear ratios to enable this loco to run
at high speeds. The train left from Joburg to a station short of Sun City,
specially constructed for the train

Two coaches stored at Salt River are still in faded Sun City express livery!

[Marc Russell]

I hear there is talk of reintroducing services to Sun City. Has/is this happened/ing?

[Stefan Andrzejewski]

Does anyone know how long it took from JHB to Sun City. By car from Bryanstan its about two hours. If the train took all day I don't think that there would be much demand.

[John Ashworth]

The first colour scheme for this locomotive.

I think her number was 37-044. I understand at one stage she was in Richards Bay.

Any clues as to what spesific modifications was made?

[Nathan Berelowitz]

She was 37 044 but the technical mods, I do not know, perhaps John Middleton may. I believe after the train was withdrawn, the modifications were removed and she was a regular 37.

[Craig Duckham]

Great historical pictures. Anybody got any decent pictures of the coaches? A real motley crue was used. Have only see pretty pictures of the train from J. Dulez.

High speed as in 90 or as in 150?
