QUOTE (Doug @ 10 Jan 2007, 20:55) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I may take a trip out there to travel on this line. There are special tours arranged for European train fans that take full advantage of the old equipment and rolling stock. The train stops often to let off photographers who wish to see the loco running by under full steam.
I spoke to my sister recently who lives in SA. She said that her family had been on this train a few years back.
"Wow!" I said, "Please send me a copy of your photos."
"I can't", she replied "I didn't take a camera on the trip!"
... Women
You know Doug, it's not just women. I regret to say this but I have been on a lot of the worlds most spectacular rail trips in SA, India, Peru, Ecuador, Europe, Kenya, Tanzania, Thailand etc and I don't remember taking any photos at all other than a couple of poor efforts in Sri Lanka. I just didn't think at the time as I was a bit focussed on other things. How I regret this now.
