Not very shocking. That part of SA is pretty shitty. Really the only part of SA that's still nice is Cape Town.

Ten to twelve people could haul off a 30 foot piece of rail. Depends on the weight. I'd imagine that railroad uses lighter pound rail than we do here in the states.

The methheads just hadn’t thought of it before. Now the South Africans have planted the seed.

It would be hilarious to watch South Africa descend into chaos if not for all the victims with European heritage that we'll be hearing about 
The British Gov't should make them whole and allow them safe passage back to the motherland, but we're too PC these days for anything like that.

Thanks Mandela.

Some guy is probably carrying it on his head on the back of a motorcycle taxi. It’s incredible what they carry on those crappy little Indian made motorcycles. The most incredible thing I’ve seen was a guy balancing a full size refrigerator on his head on the back of one.
