    Great Garrett action on the Knysna line. This old-timer looks really good and performs quite well too! Thank you for another memorable video.

      Those Garratts were a sight to behold! And scenery down that way is also stunning.

      +Patrick V D Berg that seemed like a pretty light load as the loco scampered up the pass pretty really it seemed!

      Dew on the rails or a dragging brake? At least she made it home-regardless. Real live-action! Loved it Trevor. Thank you again!
