Was lucky enough to have a couple of runs behind this beauty in the 90's. Nothing beats seeing and experiencing it in the flesh. For a narrow gauge locomotive, it is huge and surprisingly quiet. Not sure where the Ceres rail people are going to get her to stretch her legs, given its size

Check out this vid of it back in its heyday late 90's operations - stunning South African winter mornings, reasonable loadings and a peak in RR steam technology

Cheers
