Cool video. Too bad the cylinder cocks are open all the time (maybe some of them were stuck open?).

I don't think that is a South African Railways locomotive, since it is number 414. National Railways of Zimbabwe Beyer-Garett would be more correct.
I note that the date of this tape is July 12, 2017. Did not know that steam was in regular service anywhere in the world. Anyone know where active regular service steam can be found today?
A few questions come from watching the tape. The initial rolling script mentions Thompson(Thomson) Junction which is in Zimbabwe. At 1:30, the ridge formation in the background looks like Table Mountain in Capetown, Union of South Africa. Conflicting information. John in Lansing, ILL
