This T-72 apparently has a 125mm European gun and sub machine guns according to this 'expert'.

Baie dankie vir baie mooi video. Weenen moes pragtig versorgde stasie gewees het. Moes baie harrseer dag vir personeel gewees het. Sowel as die boere gemeenskap. Hulle was deel van die sluiting van taklyn stasies, deurdat hulle nie meer van spoor vervoer gebruik gemaak het nie.🙏

My uncle worked for a company that built the gearboxes for the ratels in the 80s. Every gearbox was tested to the equivalent (swinging a heavy flywheel), to the equivalent of throwing it into reverse at 100km/h. And the gearbox had to pass, and remain 100% operational.

Yes it took some effort operating a steam car but you didn't have to buy gas and you didn't have to buy batteries all you needed was water and something that would burn so Quit your belly aching it was a whole lot better than having to Hitch a team of horses and everything that went along with that, the people back then sure thought so anyway

Simply awesome time and memories thank you. What date was this all filmed on please? Kind regards Tim Surridge
@Witput3 ай бұрын
Many thanks for the comment. It was filmed in 1999. It's ironic that the Union Limited, which was an exercise in nostalgia, has itself passed into history.
@tims15423 ай бұрын
@Witput yes isn't it just. I have footage taken in 2000 or 2001 of the union limited. Followed it from Albertinia where it was dropped at the station in the early hours by a pair of diesels. Waiting in anticipation early the next morning for the Garrett and 24 class to pick it up. Brilliant memories now sadly just that.

The idea was to see if that many oxen could be controlled, not what sort of load they could pull.

I was at School of Armour in about March of 1989 when a MAN truck arrived with a tank covered by a tarpaulin. We were told it was top secret Russian acquired tank. Two corporals, who were best friends, snuck our 2 troops into the Tank Vehicle Park to have a look at the tank. They had the keys for the hanger. I seem to recall that it was a T-72, and if so, it might have been an upgraded version of the T-72. Or it was a T-80. Does anyone know what it was we peered at in the dark of that hanger?
@YolandaPlayne Жыл бұрын
hey guys, I got an idea. Instead of using gas in our cars, lets use coal and water so we can only go 2 miles until we have to shovel more coal into a fire inside our car! That way our car is always on fire! Old people sure are strange.

The Weenen train race was a annual running event. My late Father and freinds turned into a grand occasion and used to "race" against the train in their vintage cars. Good times and memories.
