Rovos Rail runs its first train

node

Rohan Vos's new private operator leaves Pretoria with one locomotive, seven carriages and four paying passengers, on a route into the eastern Transvaal. The company will build a business on colonial-era Cape-gauge alignments across southern and eastern Africa, including the long run to Dar es Salaam — routes laid for ore, administration and settlement, sold as itineraries.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
