My first attempt at filming a train (no tripod, random zooming!), my first trip with Friends of the Rail - a group I was to get heavily involved with over the next 10 years, and my first steam cabride! Although the quality of this clip is not that good, this line is now gone and the loco is rusting at Voorbaai...

Historical footage! Nice to see the Dadford brothers looking so young and Cliffie Petzer in those snazzie shorts and socks.

For a first video, it was good Trevor. I enjoyed travelling with you, in cinema, on that line. Brings back memories.

I wonder if the railways will ever get its act together enough to have trains running on that line again.
