SBE
I will slowly add photos up. I am based up here in Johannesburg and if you request nicely I can see what I can do. To start off with I decieded to show the Soweto Business Express. I don't think I saw any coveage on this forum from one of the first Business Express Services.
Enjoy

Re: SBE
I see the pic is of set numbered "SBE 2". This implies that ther at least two such sets, I assume.

Re: SBE
Very nice looking set. I notice curtains and not roller blinds on the windows. Makes a neat touch. Set looks very smart inside. Great going Metro.

Re: SBE
When I went on the SBE to Naledi last year I was surprised to find many women on the train while we flew past the normal Metro trains jammed packed with not even standing room left. I think it is the safety issue as there was a guard on each coach of the SBE. I heard talk of more sets for the Tshwane Business Express as it is very popular.

Re: SBE
Watch out for the new SBE3 soon. I hear that it would be a 10M5 with six coaches.
