Remarks & Notes 
Virtually all of the class 7E locomotives have been transferred away from the Ermelo - Richards Bay 25kV AC line and all the coal trains are now handled by class 11E and 19E locomotives. On a sunny winter morning, a 200-wagon loaded coal train has exited the Overvaal tunnel from the hill in the background and is heading east towards Sheepmoor behind six of the dual voltage class 19E's (3kV DC / 25kV AC). Compare this view to the same location in autumn (photo ID 434352).
