Stepping through these doors feels like entering a literal time machine. On this episode of Spotted, Mo Flava guides the 947 family on a nostalgic hunt through the history of Johannesburg’s streets. The clues are a paradise for vintage enthusiasts: we are searching for a South African landmark that boasts a massive, priceless collection of steam locomotives, electric trams, horse-drawn carriages, and historic firefighting equipment.
The mystery is finally solved when the lines light up for the James Hall Museum of Transport located at Pioneer Park in Rosettenville. We hear from listeners like Lee, who takes us on a trip down memory lane as he shares his heartfelt childhood memories of climbing aboard the old double-decker buses. It is a beautiful celebration of a community space that has spent decades preserving the wheels that built our city, proving that some spots in Jozi never lose their magic.
