NGG11 in De Aar

In 1981/82 I was sent North to 'Potch' ,3SAI, to do my National Service in the SADF,as a railwayman I used to get reduced travel on the train so I used to train it back to Cape Town for my long weekend passes.The train stopped in De Aar to change loco's,I would jump out and look around. In the yard stored for safe keeping was a NGG11 at the time had no idea what I was looking at but I did take a photo see attached.
This loco has survived and is in safe hand on Sandstone Trust.
