Remarks & Notes |
Randfontein Estates Gold Mine operated a fleet of up to 15 ex South African Railways Class GMAM Garretts to haul 1000 tonne gold ore trains from their shafts to the reduction plants. R4's mechanical stoker is feeding coal into the fire box, but it appears that much of the fuel is escaping unburnt into the atmosphere. |
