Two more Narrow Gauge locomotives delivered to the Sandstone Heritage Trust, Bloemfontein Works.

Two of the Narrow Gauge locomotives saved from SANRASM have been moved to Bloemfontein for restoration. Although the workshops are full Lukas Nel felt that he could start doing some preliminary work on these. The locomotives are as follows:

O&K 12691. Ruediger Fach from Germany has sent us this drawing of a restored version of this locomotive so our web viewers can see what it should look like. Ruediger has also offered to travel to a site in Germany where there is a restored one available to be photographed. Lukas will find this information most useful.

Ruediger, thank you for your offer of assistance.       

The Avonside locomotive, No. 1624, also has an interesting history. More details to follow.
