 Discover South Africa. A world in one Country.

The Gautrain Project took 4 years to complete. It is a world class 80km new rail link between Pretoria and Johannesburg and our International Airport and Sandton hewn from virgin ground with many underground sections through some of the hardest rock and under existing cities. No-one believed this African country could do it. We did.

ETA Post Rollover: Thank you commentators for the high votes and comments. The tactical 3's and 4's are meaningless. I say tactical because there were no troll 1's and 2's this time, so the 3's and 4's were tactical imo.

I love trains and have been collecting Märklin since the 70's.

The image was very well done, Harvey. Pity patriotism did not get more votes. Thanks for doing it.

I am all goose flesh. Great motivational poster to all South Africans, let alone the rest of the world. Thank you for entering it.

The Gautrain? I'm patriotic in a weird way.
