Germiston (G 9)

Name: Germiston

Germiston station has a very long platform. It is located at the base in a fork of the railway network that split the East Rand between Pretoria and Springs. This junction serves the vast industrial area on the East Rand ferrying human cargo to and from workplaces all over the Witwatersrand and also to transport goods and products of cheap and hard labour from the mines, processing plants, steel foundries, chemical and electrical production lines through all ports across many borders to distant corners of the world for others to consume.
