CAPE TIMES - April 4, 1933
FIRST ELECTRIFICATION
OF A RAILWAY
IN CAPE TOWN
IN CAPE TOWN
Work on the electrification of
the Cape Town-Bellville railway line began in April 1933, and it is
hoped to be completed by December.
It will result in a quicker service between
Cape Town and Bellville, and hopefully there will be increased
passenger traffic.
Only the suburban trains between
Cape Town and Bellville will be affected by the electrification.
The main line trains, goods trains and
passenger trains to and from places beyond Bellville will
continue to be worked by steam.
