| Description: |
Between 1992 and 1994 Spoornet placed fifty Class 38-000 locomotives in service, numbered in the range from 38-001 to 38-050. It was designed for Spoornet by a Consortium led by Siemens and built by Union Carriage and Wagon in Nigel, Transvaal. They are dual powered electro-diesel locomotives, capable of running either on 3 kV electricity off the catenary or on diesel alone. In 1992 three Class E38 locomotives were also built for Amcoal Mines for use at the Landau Colliery near Witbank, Mpumalanga, numbered in the range from E38-001 to E38-003. These are electric locomotives identical in appearance to the Class 38-000, but designed for 3 kV electric operation only.
