In the 1850's the Graskop area was a farm owned by Abel Erasmus, an adventurous character involved in hunting, prospecting and imposing law and order in the area. The purpose was to establish a Government Township for the newly discovered goldfield of Mac Mac. In 1910, the newly formed government of the Union of South Africa decided to build a railway line from Nelspruit to the farm Graskop, which was the nearest place to the goldfields of Pilgrim's Rest, at the request of Rand Mines, the owners of Transvaal Gold Mining Company. Some two hundred residents of Pilgrim's Rest managed to drive to the station to welcome the arrival of the train. In the meantime, between 1912 and 1914, a break in the communication between the Transvaal Township Board (The Government Body responsible for the development and the naming of Townships) and the Railways occurred. He was the agent for the Zeederberg Coach Service between Graskop railway station and Pilgrim's Rest and later developed the extensive R.W. He opened the first garage and motor agency in Graskop. Together with his friend Max Liebnitz, he served on the first Health Committee of Graskop. Wagner, the District Registrar of the Mining Titles, positioned himself, at the sunrise on the border between Graskop farm and Driekop to read the proclamation. On the starting signal, the police fired a volley of shots and five hundred men, some on horeseback, others on foot raced to peg the best claims. With the proclamation of Graskop in 1914, parents of schoolchildren requested that the Farm Aided School at Malidyke be upgraded to a Government primary school and moved to Graskop itself. In 1972, the mining activities in Pilgrim's Rest ground to a halt and today the railway is used to serve the large timber industry in the area.
