(20-12-2023) Shosholoza Meyl to Cape Town. Our journey is up to Potchestroom. This will be a 3 part series : Park Station - Germiston | Germiston - Redan | Alloy - Potchestroom. Music by: @iksonmusic - Last Summer
3 visits to SA in the 1990s. If this is Joburg where are all the people? looks like a ghost town😢Hope those stations are going to be upgraded, but as nobody seems to use them they must be abandoned?
@vernongoodey5096 Most stations suffered the blow during Covid 19, and the country went on lockdown. Construction has begun to recover most of the stations.
@@bonganimkhwanazi6485 Good to hear. My last trip was from Joburg to Bulawayo via Beitbridge. Bought a 15F numberplate from the museum at Joburg station (is it still there?) to go with my Zimbabwe flying fifteen Garrett name and numberplate INGWE No. 381
What a filthy station and lines!! As far as you go it's just trash. No pride whatsoever! It's like a refuse dumpyard not to mention the grass and weed. A real cesspit! I wonder how clean the inside of the trains are? I wouldn't ever use this train that's for sure! The last time we travelled this route was in 1993 and it was such a pleasure. Stations were super clean and tidy as well as the interior of the train and along the tracks. You never saw such filth and weed jungle! Clearly it's not the case now.
They don't care. Just look at the state of the route and stations! The biggest refuse dumpyard in the world! That's a reflection of their concern and attitude towards their work ethics and passengers.
Wat het ons verwag van 'n land wat deur die ANC koministies terroristies politiek partye regeer word hulle trek mos alles deur hulle gat want hulle het nie voor 1994 gewerk om die land op te bou nie die bliksems klomp krimineele.
Pre 1994 JHB station saw the arrival and departure of over 1000 trains a day. Now looking along the tracks 30 years later, not a single trackside signal light in opperation, not to mention the general condition of neglect for all to see. It was said at the time that SA was built on the backs of black labour, and here is the proof of that lie. It is now an entrenched fact that black governments in SA can achieve nothing other than breaking things down, The ANC is truly and fundamentaly useless to its voters..
