hulks of electric units at the Rovos Rail depot. Three class 5E1 units
arrived last week, not sure if towed or went under own juice, but obviously
were towed into their shed, unless a long extension cable was run!!

Paving the way for the future, paving the way for the end?!

Don't be negative. (Steam Forever) They probably have those to power their trains to the Cape as Transnet are probably unreliable. Detective Nathan could you please get us some photos.
