Goukama, South Africa. This is on the George-Knysna line (Since abandoned). The two mixed trains met here, and we got one just out of the station on an overpass, and you can see the opposite train behind it climbing out of the valley. These were cape gauge 2-8-4 class 24's. Have this scene on video In SA#2 "Steam by the Ocean".
