Class 25 Nr 3532 Modder River in 1974

Post by Steve Appleton »

Posted on behalf of the photographer, Dennis Mitchell:
This is class 25 nr 3532 as far as I can ascertain, ripping through Modder River at the 90 km/h goods limit. This was our 2nd day with the beasts and we were still getting used to their size when a few went through showing they were no slouches when it came to "highballing", if I can use the yank phrase.
What a machine, on any gauge ... but 3'6" (1065 mm) ... I'm dreaming!!!
