Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe - South Africa
 Source: blip.tv
The Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe, pronounced "Oat-Tar-Nee-Qua Chew Chew" is the last remaining scheduled steam service still operating in South Africa. It links the coastal towns of George and Knysna, on the western cape, in and area known as the "Garden Route".Due to a combination of track maintenance and a landslide the motive power has been replaced by a diesel and the total running length of the 68Km line has been reduced by a third. This service now goes from Knysna to the seaside resort of Wilderness.Also included in this production is a detailed visit to the transport museum at George, plus black and white photos of the line in it's hay-day of operations.This was the very last branch line to be built in South Africa and a trip on it is a must. The views of Knysna lagoon and atrip over the 2.5Km bridge and causeway is worth visiting whilst travelling along this little known line.Today the independent traveller is discovering what this region has to offer, so please enjoy this production.www.sprucestudios.comWidescreenPAL Region 0Our Price £15.00
