ABERDEEN NEWS - Aberdeen Police have issued a strong warning to the community of Aberdeen not to take any of the railway sleepers from the disused railway line near the Aberdeen/Klipplaat road or from the road between Aberdeen Station and Graaff-Reinet.
The sleepers are the property of Transnet Freight Rail and if anyone is found in possession of the railway sleepers without the necessary documentation from Transnet Freight Rail they may be prosecuted.
This follows several unconfirmed tip-offs that people from Aberdeen have been going on outings to the area and taking home “souvenirs” in the form of railway sleepers, either to use themselves in their gardens or to sell.
Anyone with any information on these illegal activities is asked to contact the Aberdeen SAPS on 049 846 0015.
