This video makes me miss my time at Pretoria west

[@marval44039]

Pity It's not as busy as it used to be

[@nigellennert8967]

Thanks where are they heading with the grin rod locos

[@marval44039]

They were heading to Grindrond's base in Pretoria West

Is that the new private sector that is partnering with transnet?

[@marval44039]

I think these are some of the locomotives that have just returned from Sierra Leone. I'm not sure what the future plans are for them.The partnership between Transnet and the private sector hasn't come into effect yet.

[@howardsifiso3649]

@marval44039 Oh, okay. Thank u

The first 3 locos are TFR?

[@marval44039]

Yes, the first three were Transnet locomotives. They had to haul the privately owned locomotives to their destination since they're not allowed to operate on state owned lines yet.

0:45 😂😂 are they rocks or coal on top of the locomotive?

[@marval44039]

It's coal. Looks like they pulled it from inside the mine😄
