This information was kindly supplied by Dennis Moore and
is believed correct as at July 2004 but is obviously subject to change! It
represents an astonishing collection of African railway stock.
Freetown = Sierra Leone (With the establishment of the museum there, the
exact ownership of these items obviously has changed. RD)
Beira, Luabo, Marromeu = Mocambique, several ex-Mocambique
locos have now left the country and are at Ficksburg.
