Locomotive number 3052 was presented to David Shepherd in 1991 by Spoornet and has since been entrusted to the Sandstone Heritage Trust. Initially being used and then stored the locomotive was put back to steam by Reefsteamers after being awarded the restoration contract by Sandstone Estates.

Avril has already done a number of test trips, including a double header with 15F 3046 to Magaliesburg and two winter photo shoots held by Reefsteamers. The locomotive has now been allocated to Friends of the Rail in Pretoria to assist the club with traction shortages.

Filmed on the morning of August 28, 2016 outside the Reefsteamers depot in Germiston. Where the crew was preparing the locomotive and their stomachs for the transfer trip to Hermanstad in Pretoria.

Welcomed onboard by Nathan Berelowitz, Kobus Blignaut and Les Labuschagne a rather interesting and humorous cooking show ensued with Masterchef Nathan taking the lead.

Nathan was also kind enough to reveal the true purpose of all those shiny gauges and levers found in a typical South African steam locomotive...

The crew is cooking a traditional South African Boerewors on the shovel. Boerewors meaning "Farmers Sausage" is a 90% pure meat sausage containing no processed meats with a limited fat content.

Boerewors is an important part of South African cuisine and is mostly cooked on a fire commonly known as a Braai.
