Remarks & Notes |
18-250 with a shortish load of containers approaching Colenso Station from the Durban / Pietermaritzburg side. The town of Colenso has significant history with the railways in South Africa, as it was on the banks of the Tugela River in Colenso during the 1920s that South African Railways built the Colenso Power Station (it opened in 1926) to supply electricity for the 274 km section of track between Glencoe and Pietermaritzburg (the first electrification). |
