Dave Rodgers' 2007 tour: 3664 and 2056

These were taken on Friday 8th and Saturday 9th June 2007 and were amongst the last few shots I have ever taken in South Africa (to date). They are of course on the very short Cullinan branch with Friends of Rail's Class 24 No. 3664 and Reefsteamers 15CA No. 2056. We had splendid weather and of course great co-operation which on the Saturday featured a loco at either end of the train, each one in turn being removed for runpasts! Late morning on 9th we coupled up the locos and stock and returned to Capital Park for a braai and then to the airport for the return flight. I remember this part of the tour vividly for on Friday night the group had been booked into a hotel about as far away from Cullinan as possible, at Centurian where there was no dining room and some very angry customers!

These are not necessarily the best images from the 2 days, just that they happened to be filed out of place and need to be put in their rightful place.
