Powering freight on Mozambique's Sena Railway Line.

With 2 Traxtion-leased C30 locomotives, 10 customer-owned GT26CW-3 locomotives, and a fleet of 220 wagons, our operation plays a vital role in supporting Mozambique's mining sector and connecting its valuable resources to international markets.

Safe. Reliable. Efficient. That's the Traxtion way.

For 39 years, Traxtion has been built by the people who keep rail moving on the line, in the workshops and behind the scenes.

Today, Traxtion connects markets and keeps industries moving across Africa. That did not happen by chance. It happened shift by shift, and locomotive by locomotive, all because of our people.

Thank you for every kilometre that got us here.

As we mark this milestone, we look back with pride and forward with purpose. There is more track to lay, more markets to connect and more to build together.

Here is to 39 years. Here is to what is next.

Be Exponential.

Happy Birthday Traxtion! 🎉🎉🎉

Built for the long haul. Maintained for what’s ahead.

Locomotive 3012 has earned its reputation through years of dependable service. After thousands of operating hours, this C30-EMP locomotive has returned to our workshop for a comprehensive planned overhaul — addressing component wear, restoring performance and extending the life of a proven asset. Delivering 3,200 hp through a 12-cylinder turbocharged engine and supported by GE’s BrightStar microprocessor control system, the overhaul covers the locomotive’s key mechanical, electrical and braking systems, including the engine, fuel system, turbocharger, cooling system, braking system, bogies, traction motors and rotating electrical equipment.

Once final inspection, testing and commissioning are complete, 3012 will receive a fresh Traxtion livery before returning to service. More than maintenance, this is about extending asset life, restoring performance and keeping a proven locomotive ready for what’s ahead.

The future of African rail will not be built by one organisation alone — it will take collaboration, investment and a shared commitment to unlocking the sector’s potential.

On Tuesday, 1 September 2026, Traxtion welcomed representatives from our (direct and indirect) shareholders, Harith, the Government Employees Pension Fund (GEPF) and the Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA) to our Rail Services Hub in Pretoria for a Traxtion Insights Session.

The visit provided an opportunity for these important stakeholders in our business to gain deeper insight into Traxtion’s operations, capabilities, experience and capacity to support the growth and development of the African rail sector.

The discussions reinforced the importance of strong public-private partnerships and strategic investment in building a more resilient, efficient and sustainable rail sector across the continent. We are grateful to Harith, GEPF and DBSA for joining us and for the valuable perspectives shared during the session. Through collaboration and shared ambition, we can help shape a stronger future for African rail — one that enables greater connectivity, unlocks economic opportunity and contributes meaningfully to Africa’s growth and development.
