After an escorted drive and walk to pay and collect our rail tickets through the surprisingly safe seeming JoBurg rail station and a delayed start we got on our lil sleeper carriage. We were nestled in a small airtight box reminecent of a U-Boat's toilet. We huddled and tried to play cards with shivering hands as we choo chooed out past shanty towns, trash, urban waste, pollution and cute sheep. Until the locomotive died after 3 hours in a remote piece of plains, stranding us all for 3 more hours as I banged my head on the aforesaid small cabin. We got under way then stopped and got underway and repeat etc until we got in Port Elizabeth 4 hours late...
