Dates:10/20/2009 - 12/31/2020
Album Info:Rolling stock with road numbers starting with 90 to 99 - Maintenance of way and other non-revenue wagons, passenger train steam heating wagons, goods train guard's vans, and ex Iscor ballast hoppers, ore cars and some other types. Many non-revenue wagons in the 90 number range are purpose built, but a large number have also been reclassified for non-revenue service, and sometimes modified. Since the two sides of all wagon types are different, I treated the side on which the vacuum pipes are mounted, or where this was not practical, the side on which the brake wheel is mounted to the left of centre, as Side B. Further, since they describe brake systems and not wagon types, I left out the letters D, L, R, V and J in the wagon letter codes. Where applicable, the various complete letter codes and new class numbers for each wagon are included in brackets in the descriptions. The meaning of these omitted letters follow below.

D in position 2, 3 or 4: Dual Power Vacuum Brakes.

L in position 2, 3 or 4: Air Brakes.

R in position 2, 3 or 4: Dual Power Air Brakes.

V in position 3 or 4: Vacuum Brakes.

J in position 2, 3 or 4: Vacuum Brakes with Rejection Lugs on Brake Shoes.

SAR Class NZ (Side A) (ex FP-2)
Title:  SAR Class NZ (Side A) (ex FP-2)
Description:  Class NZ wagons are various types of wagons that were either purpose built or reclassified for use in non-revenue service. This is a Class FP-2 wagon that entered service in 1969 and was designed to transport parcels. It was likely decorated circa 1994 and on the A side it features Nelson Mandela, F.W. de Klerk and Mangosotho Buthelezi at left, and King Shaka and his mother Nandi at right. On both sides of the wagon various aspects of Zulu culture are also depicted. I suspect the artist was an ex SA Defence Force Zulu soldier, judging from the names incorporated in the artwork. Vryburg, Stella, Kameel, Piet Plessi, Bray and Pomfret were mostly locations of military bases, while Louwna is the wife of recce Maj Wynand du Toit who spent two years as a POW in Angola.
