Remarks & Notes |
Atlantic Rail is a new operator planning to return steam to the Cape Town area. They have restored Class 24 No. 3655 to working order and plan to run trains along the ultra-scenic commuter rail line to Simonstown. An open day was held on Sunday 8th August. Here we see the train start from the old parcels platform at Cape Town station. The other star of the day was stored Class 26 No. 3450 "The Red Devil" which had been cleaned up by AR volunteers and put on display. Maybe, just maybe, one day we'll see her in steam on the front of a AR train! |
