Daytrip on the Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe Stream Train, George to Knysna & back, 9 Jul 1996
The Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe, the last remaining continually-operated passenger steam train in Africa, was still in full operation on 9 Jul 1996 when we did the daytrip from George to Knysna and back. Our train was pulled by steam locomotive SAR Class 19D No.3324. En route we crossed with two other steam trains, pulled by SAR Class 24 No.3683 and SAR Class 24 No.3660 in her green attire.
The 3-hour journey stopped in the towns of Wilderness, Goukamma, and Sedgefield. The scenic 67-kilometre (42 mi) route hugs the rugged coastline of the Garden Route before ending by crossing a bridge over the lagoon in Knysna.
Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe was declared an officially preserved railway in 1992, carrying about 40,000 passengers per year at the time. A decade later, it carried 115,000 passengers per year, 70% of whom were foreign tourists. During August 2006 the line was damaged due to heavy flooding. As of November 2006 it was rescheduled to run between George and Mossel Bay (with a stop at Hartenbos).
In 2007, in their wisdom, the train's owners, Transnet Limited, announced that the train was not regarded as part of its core business. Finally, on 19 August 2010 Transnet announced that, following unsuccessful attempts to find a new operator, the train would stop operating.

OUTINIQUA TRANSPORT MUSEUM, GARDEN ROUTE, SOUTH AFRICA
Outiniqua Transport Museum and the Outiniqua Pass Railway trip. South Africa
This is a look around the museum with its many trains, car display, old stagecoaches. It also features our trip on a power van through the Outiniqua Pass with fantastic scenary.
The Outeniqua Mountains form a mountain range located along the Garden Route of South Africa. They run parallel to the coast and form a continuous range with the Langeberg to the west and the Tsitsikamma Mountains to the east. The range was named Serra da Estrela ('Mountain of the Star') on old Portuguese charts.
In 1908 work started on a railway route over the range from George to Oudtshoorn. This required the building of seven tunnels and numerous long cuttings. The line was opened in August 1913.
The first road pass to cross the range into the Langkloof went via Duiwelskop, some 32 km east of George. In 1811 a new pass was constructed and named Cradock Pass after the Governor, Sir John Cradock. It was difficult to negotiate and became known as the 'Voortrekker Road'. In 1847 a vastly improved Montagu Pass was constructed by convict labour, and named after the Colonial Secretary, John Montagu. In 1943, to cope with the increasing demands of modern traffic, construction was started on the Outeniqua Pass, using the labour of Italian prisoners of war. At the end of World War II the Italians returned home with the greater part of the pass unfinished. The pass was opened to traffic in September 1951, having cost approximately £500 000.
