Gautrain is getting there

We are certainly getting very excited about The Gautrain which is set to be operational in April 2010, at least between OR Tambo International Airport and Sandton, just in time for the Soccer World Cup.

The Gautrain Rapid Rail Link is a state-of-the-art rapid rail network planned in Gauteng. The rail connection comprises of two links, namely a link between Pretoria and Johannesburg and a link between OR Tambo International Airport and Sandton. Apart from the three anchor stations on these two links, seven other stations will be linked by approximately 80 kilometres of rail along the proposed route.

The three anchor stations will be located at:

* OR Tambo International Airport;
* Pretoria; and
* Johannesburg.

The seven other stations will be located at:

* Rosebank;
* Sandton;
* Marlboro;
* Midrand;
* Centurion;
* Hatfield; and
* Rhodesfield (Kempton Park
