A Typical South African Railways Branch Line (Part Two) + startup procedure! 

Thank You Shane! I surely will, just going to concentrate more on electric traction the following 2 months... will check out your channel! Regards, from SA.

Thanks for commenting. I've seen a few youtube videos of class 33 GE's working metros in PE... but that is all I know of.

There’s one class 33 left. 33-487 is based at East London and owned by metrorail

Baie dankie vir die inloer!

Same here Man. They don't allow anyone in the railway yard easily. I needed safety boots, a reflector jacket and special permission to go film My SA railways Branch line series...but hey, it worked and the crew...well they're just awesome!

Kan regtig nie onthou nie Oom, maar skat nie meer as 25 waens nie, want die Sir Louwry's Pass is bietjie baie steil en vol skerp draaie!

12 :)

Hey Bernard. :) The engines in the video were built in the States, they are GE-type. Some are EMD (General Motors Company's Div.). The only diesels we built ranges from class 43-000 to 45-000 (the latter being a combination of Canadian, US, Chinese and SA technology). And a new Trans-Africa Locomotive or class TAL-2000, but I got no info about mass-manufacturing yet. Thank you for your comment.
