double heading with 25NC 3442. The two Rovos Rail locomotives, went out on
the Wednesday public holiday and brought a train in from Irene, as the units
had failed. Since then, the locomotive has been hard at work and doubled the
whole weekend with her sister. The two "worshond" tender locos look
stunning. This week they will be working most days. '33 is a standard
stoker, whilst '42 is a Berkley. Woris now slowly starting on 3440.
Beaconsfield comes to Pretoria!

The class 19D is now for standby use.
