Gwelo_G&DLR_No.2. Steam in Southern Africa: Rhodesia 1973. The second O&K locomotive owned by the Gwelo & District Light Railway was No.2, of unknown building date and works number. It was named ‘Margaret’ after the wife of the manager of the Selukwe Peak chromium mine, which company donated loco No.2 and the two carriages seen here at Nether Gwelo station. The writer does not know the engine’s final fate, only that like No.1 it was purchased by an overseas buyer. It is sobering to realise that the little girl on the station platform and the children enjoying a train ride with their parents, are all now aged in their latter fifties!  roger.griffiths@hotmail.com
