Fruit Reefers
I posted two photos in the Gallery under S.A.Langkloof. One is the beginning showing launch day at Verholmes, and the other is the more usual view in 1966, departing Cape Town full of Outspan oranges. Remember, these boxes were loaded by hand from palettes and came right alongside the quay in freight trains hauled by huge SAR steam engines. Things have no doubt changed a lot in 50 years.
