    Delighted to say this has passed its Mainline steam boiler test in South Africa!!! The Beyer Garratt, though Henschel built lives again

    This was 4072 a few years earlier, in April 1980, on Voorbai MPD when named 'Black Beauty'. Also on shed was an equally clean classmate named 'Amin'. When I asked the shedmaster the reason for the unexpected name he replied " It's big black ugly and covered in brass - what else do you want me to call it?"
