Running a steam heritage operation is not by any means all about the glamour of steam. There are many boring mundane non-steam-related tasks - administration, finance, health and safety, marketing, etc. Fire safety is one - and one that we are particularly conscious of after the recent Rovos Rail fire.

We inherited five fairly new fire extinguishers from TFR when we leased the site from thm. One has been discharged, and all are past their service dates, so here they have been loaded into John A's bakkie to be taken for servicing and recharging.
