RE: The Beauty of Smoke.

Thanks for sharing your memories, @joanstewart! I do appreciate it!

I miss those days too! I remember the days as a young boy when we travelled by train up to Southwest- Africa (Namibia) to visit my father's parents on the farm. The first part of the journey would be to De Aar. From there, half of the train wagons would continue down to Cape Town, while we would be connected to a steam engine. Then the rest of our journey would be behind a steam engine such as this one in my post, all the way up to Windhoek where my Grandparents would pick us up before going out to the farm in the Gobabis district.

It's nice to have these memories and share them with one another!
