Hi,
Spent an interesting weekend with the guys from Atlantic Rail. They ran two 'Easter Bunny' trains today from Cape Town via Langa, Bonteheuwel, Belville and return.
Last night I joined them for the lighting up of the loco, rejoined them this morning for preparations, followed the morning train (not too succesfully photographically) and rode the afternoon train.
Hope you enjoy,
Pete.
