Events that happened in Johannesburg during 1952:
In 1952, the original Park Station structure was dismantled and moved 45km to the Transnet railway training college at Esselen Park to make way for redevelopment of the Park Station complex. In 1993, the structure was dismantled again and brought another 45km to a site in Newtown, with the ambition of it becoming a Railway Museum. The total distance travelled is approximately 15,250km - not far off twice the full length of the African continent, having being originally shipped from the Netherlands in kit form by the Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek in 1896.
At the time, the erection of the NZASM buildings was the largest single exercise in prefabricated architecture, bar the structures of the goldmines on the Witwatersrand. The architectural technology of Old Park Station mirrors the technology of the railways, with the use of replicated components in iron and rhythmic arrangement of bays. It is a product of the great Industrial Age, when new building technologies were created from pioneering engineering and manufacturing processes.
