Diesel class 33-511

Post by Morne Bothma »

I took these pics of 33-511 class diesel at Worcester diesel depot, sad to see 35-512 and 35-501 at the depot stripped of parts, as they still ran recently, 35-508 also standing there, been in an accident a few years ago, not sure what happened, front smash!

Nice pictures.

Is it possible for everyone to visit the depot in Worcester? Where have I to ask?
Thanks for any answer.

Hi Morne,

Thank you for your answer. But unfortunately I didn't see it on time. I was last Saturday in Worcester but I couldn't find the entrance to the depot. Only to the freight department.
But I saw the Blue Train and another one which wasn't on time from Jo'burg coming.
Actually I'm now in George and I will take pictures of the Outeniqua Choo Tjoe tomorrow.

Andreas
