Part 2: Greyville Loco, Greyville Station to Umgeni and Berea Road to Rossburgh
Part 12: The Natal Main Line: Pietermaritzburg to Ladysmith, including branches
Part 13: The Natal Main Line: Ladysmith to Charlestown, including branches
Part 23: Ixopo–Donnybrook (Stuartstown Railway) and Union Bridge (Ixopo)–Madonela branch
Part 24: Port Shepstone–Harding Railway (Alfred County Railway)
Part 27: Natal Narrow Gauge Preservation. Where are they now?
