Hell, these two put on one hell of a show

Fantastic and great video. Thank you very much.

Yes, magnificent! I grew up with these engines at close hand as my Dad worked for what was back then called the S.A.R&H ... South African Railways and Harbours. I left SA in 1987 and think it is terribly sad that the current regime does not honor such rich history ... Thank you so very much ...

@Linda69P Thanks! This was filmed in August 2002. Sadly since then so much has changed. These locomotives and even the train are no longer operating.

Very good, thank you, trevor. Did you use the same identical video cameras?

@Spalterbockl Yes, it was the same TRV7E Mini DV camera with Sennheiser ground mic.

Fantastic video Trev! It's absolutely amazing how these locos operate. I would LOVE to go to South Africa and visit the steam depots just for photos.
