Hello,
here are some pictures I took of the 15CA 2828 with stands together with the Gospel train in Vink.

Hello Andreas,

You may be interested in visiting my blog page entry about 15 CA 2828.

http://steam-locomotives-south-africa.b ... -near.html

It plots bits of the history of 2828 over many years - much detail was provided by Richard Niven, the last fireman to work this engine - there is also a link to a video clip of 2828 on it's last active run on 12 May 1992.

regards
piet conradie

Surely those connecting rods can be refitted to the loco, before the rods disappear? any eager Capetonian willing . . . ?

Hi Piet,
it is really an interesting page. Thank you for the link. I think I still have a lot to read.
