At Trident Refractory Specialists, it’s not always about shutdowns and emergency breakdowns. Sometimes, we have the chance to work on unique projects, and we’re happy to share one of them! We recently had the pleasure of casting a arch inside the boiler of a 1912 locomotive for the Umgeni Steam Railway, which is currently undergoing a 12-year restoration project
Since 1982, Umgeni Steam Railway has been dedicated to preserving our railway heritage, operated entirely by passionate volunteers who restore these historic trains. While our contribution was just a small part of their efforts, we were delighted to assist in keeping the steam train tradition alive.
It’s rewarding to be involved in a project that blends history and engineering, and we’re glad we could lend a hand.
