Hello Alan,
Thanks for your website link to the Schuitema recording of this event. It brought back many memories.
Those that want to develop the Boet Erasmus site and those that are restoring the old Tramway building would be wise to see what nature can possibly do again at any time at these two locations, i.e. Baakens and Shark rivers.
The restoration of the Tramway building is only a job creation exercise by the NMBD Agency as is many of their other projects benefitting only an elite few business people.
The words “Historical” and “Heritage” when used by this agency can be taken with a pinch of salt.
Mike.
