Projects Long Term
Reefsteamers has a large collection of rolling stock and a hugh depot area which need maintenance.
In this section we like to show you the most important projects we have actual. We distinguish our projects between “Actual Projects” and “Long Term Projects”.
With the income of the train tickets and the sold souvenirs we can financial a part of our projects, but your support as a future working member or donator is necessary to financial all the work which need to be done.

Only with your support Reefsteamers will be able to preserve the most important parts of South African’s industrial revolution.
Please support us with a Reefsteamers membership and get involved in preserving steam trains or you like to support us with a donation?
