South African Railways, Voorbaai depot & workshops

6th March 2008

Voorbaai is one of the last depots still operating steam locomotives, at the time of this visit 3 19D's were operational for the George to Mossel Bay passenger service, two of which came on shed for servicing during my visit. Several other locomotives looked in reasonable condition, others were being worked on while several more had obviously lain out of use for many years. The depot also serves as a refuelling point for passing diesel locomotives which operate all the freight traffic.
