Thanks to everyone who had a look at this & thanks to everyone who had
time to comment.

the tracks because I wanted to shoot photos of a wind farm before I
Very interesting operation in South Africa.
340 'wagon' iron ore trains.
3 sets of engines and 114 'wagons' and later 2 pushers engines at the back!

Even hauling empties on flat terrain, I'd guess 120-130 cars ma
