Re: The Sub Nigel
This Sub Nigel loco can be found along the main road through Nigel, next to the KFC and Shoprite I think. The sister of this loco can be found at Gold Reef City, but in a very different Colour. This is still in its original colours.

Re: The Sub Nigel
Thanks James.
Piet is very excited about this find and I expect will be contacting you for more info and permission to use your photograph. Did you manage to get any pics of the classic Electric loco they have at UC&W?

Derek,
I did manage to take a few photos of the plinthed 1E outside the main gates to UC&W and the green 6th class, I will post some tomorrow if you like.
