Glencairn Station

Post by allanroy »

This station is also between Fish Hoek and Simons Town and the platform is right on the coast open to the elements.

Wow... you can do ship spotting, train spotting (and bird watching) all at the same time. Its much prettier than views of mine dumps like we have in JHB.
Not quite on the rails.

It's a pity there is no railway line past Clifton. Lots of Ornithology there.!!

Brings back many childhood memories, I would hop off the platform (on the left of the picture) and walk on and over the railway line to the beach.
