Viewing Album:  South African Diesel-Electric Locomotives
 
By:Col André Kritzinger
Dates:10/15/2015 - 10/15/2015
Album Info:Diesel-Electric locomotives of Transnet Freight Rail and the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa, the former South African Railways, later Spoornet. Here is one picture of every South African diesel locomotive I've ever photographed, A to Z by loco number, and here and there the same loco in a different paint scheme. I am receiving assistance from fellow railfans in the attempt to post a picture of each and every SA locomotive, most notably from Charles Baker, driver Noel Welch, John Middleton and an anonymous Railfan.

Title:  SAR Class 61-000 61-006 (D750)
Description:  Between May and July 1959, in order to also gain experience with other forms of diesel motive power, the South African Railways placed seven Class 1-DH diesel-hydraulic locomotives in service, designed and built by Henschel and Son. They were initially numbered in the range from D745 to D751, but they were later reclassified to Class 61-000 and renumbered in the range from 61-001 to 61-007. Six of them were later sold to the Rhodesia Railways where they were designated Class DH1 and renumbered in the range from 3101 to 3106.
