South African Special and NAmed Trains


Now this is a wide open field...  I intend to have photos here of trains such as the Blue Train.  I do not have a lot of opportunities to travel by train, so I only get pics if I am in the right place at the right time.  As such, I believe this section will grow very slowly.
