  3. Five-Year review + Volumes + Financial ratios • The launch of the Transnet Africa Locomotive during April 2017 marked a crucial step in its strategy of becoming a leading manufacturer and supplier of rolling stock on the African continent. • The locomotive, designed, engineered and manufactured in Africa, is suitable for use on branch lines and in the yard for shunting, while also being able to travel on old rail tracks originally designed to carry light axle loads. • In addition, the diesel-powered Trans- Africa Locomotive is appropriate for aged railway lines that operate on the Cape Gauge system, offering a cost-effective solution for the majority of the continent’s railway lines that are currently unused.
