Hello Esprit and welcome to the Railway Forum. Sorry to hear about Transnet's lack of intrest with the Choo Tjoe. I had a trip on it way back in 1997. As a young boy, I also did the Garden Route from Cape Town to P E. Even though I was a young teenager, I found the route one of the best I have ever seen. I miss the old trains of Africa, traveling from Ndola to C T. After a week or two, on to P E for another week before traveling on to Joburg. Then back to Ndola via Maffiking, Bulawayo, Victoria Falls etc. Not much of a trip now, if you can find a train thats running in Zim now.
