  • From Cape Town to Robertson, in South Africa’s Western Cape, with Ceres Rail. Turn up the volume if you don’t mind some wind noise to hear the old lady talking extremely loudly at times. Thanks for watching. Enjoy!

    I'm sure glad this magnificent steamer is still with us. I rode across the Karoo behind it in 1982. She impressed me with both power and speed capabilities. Thank you for sharing this with us.

    South Africa once had probably one of the most efficient railway networks on the planet managed and operated with pride and dedication by experts in their various fields.
    What has happened?

    thanks for producing and publishing a great video about trains, without a lot of extraneous nefarious music and chatter. Love the wheel slip starts on grades.

    Really exciting to see David Wardale's dream become a reality! Why don't we hear more of this masterpiece of Steam locomotion?

    As an American, this engine is just gorgeous. Unlike anything we have in the States.

      so you have never seen the 4449, the 700, the 844 and the 3985?? Those are just 4 of the many restored and running steam engines in the US.

    Ja nee dit was ook die laaste keer wat sy op die spoore was 3550 nou sien jy haar nie meer want die mense het geen trots.

    When is she going to run again ? Sad to see her deteriorating outside the Royal Cape Yacht Club

      I believe she is still being looked after and may yet grace the rails in the future again.

      Sy ís gebou om BAIE stoom te maak ja om daai silinders vol stoom te hou wanneer sy baie vinnig hardloop.

    Red is not good colour for steam Loco. Best is black colour. Colour of steam coal.
