Outeniqua Choo-tjoe: Last run?

I went to George yesterday to ride the Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe on what was possibly its last trip. Everyone working there seemed completely uninformed and uncertain about the future of their operation. They were, nevertheless, cheerful and very accommodating. The Loco used was 19D No 2649, "ROSIE", who performed (to my untrained eyes and ears) perfectly.

I do not know the first thing about photographing trains, but borrowed my wife's camera simply to document the occasion. Maybe these are the last photos (but hopefully not!).
