A Railfan Chase to watch Shunting Freight Trains

TALE of THREE TRAINS - A Railfan Chase to watch Shunting Freight Trains. On a very windy day (Jan 27, 2021) two diesel trains left the Bellville (South Africa) Railway depot for Malmesbury and Kalbaskraal. After much shunting along the way, a 3rd joined train returned to the Bellville depot. Hope you enjoy this detailed video about all the action along the way. ⏲️ CHAPTERS INDEX: 0:00 | 8:30 AM BRACKENFELL: (GE "U-boats" model U15C) Diesels 35-483 + 35-467 with a Grain Train to MALMESBURY 0:32 | 9:30 AM BRACKENFELL: (GE "U-boats" model U15C) Diesels 35-002 + 35-449 Ammonia tanker for MELLISH + 20 Ballast wagons 1:23 | MELLISH siding: The train stops here to deliver the AMMONIA tanker; The ammonia from the SASOL plant is used to treat cattle fodder. 7:59 | KALBASKRAAL: In the old days of steam this was a very busy junction with a Steam loco shed.
