Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: South African Railways 25NC Class No. 3405 This is one of over 100 steam locomotives of this class built for South African Railways by the North British Locomotive Company works, makers number 27291. They were amongst the most technically advanced and powerful rigid-frame steam locomotives ever to have been built in this country. She was shipped to South Africa to provide motive power for South Africa's heavy and most prestigious passenger services, including the world-famous and luxurious "Blue Train" until the late 1970s. In her later years she continued service in the Orange Free State, where she worked until dieselisation. Repatriated to England, arriving at Southampton Docks on 23rd October 1991, and at Quainton by low loader on 28 October 1991 |
