The Gezira Light Railway
The Gezira Light Railway has been researched very thoroughly and Alan M. Keef is one of the few people to have actually been there in relatively recent times. This was a narrow gauge railway of superlatives; over 1,000 kilometres of track, at least 1,800 bogie wagons and 140 locomotives on the roster. This book covers the history to its zenith in the 1970s and decline as the British cotton industry itself declined. The irrigation scheme, a major civil engineering achievement in its own right that made all this possible, is also covered.
Softback, 128 pages, black & white and colour photographs
