Gold Reef City Locomotives

[Derek Walker]

One of my workmates visited Gold Reef City this weekend and brought back some pics. Surprisingly enough the locos are in a fair condition. I just hope they stay that way.

The plinthed locos always really worry me a lot.

Much ado is made over the rusting hulks, but little interest is paid to the plinthed locos like these And I worry that one day someone says "I do not like these - we need the space for......." and bam - some locos in really good nick are gone............
