RAILWAY ACROSS THE EQUATOR – The story of the East African
Line Author: Amin,Mohamed ; Willetts, Duncanand ; Matheson, Alastair Publisher: The Bodley Head, 1986 ISBN: 0 370 30774 7 The text is by Matheson; the colour photographs are by Amin & Willetts with extras from Hugh Ballantyne and Colin Garratt. There are historical black and white photos courtesy of Kenya Railways. It’s a general historical narrative, giving a good introduction to the East African Railways, but lacking details and lists for the nerds and anoraks amongst us. A curiosity for a book like this is its system map. Besides giving the opening date for each line, the map colour codes them all by rail weight, lists the ruling grades and has an undefined figure which looks like maximum curvature in each section. The quality of the photographs is excellent, as would be expected from Amin, reckoned to be Africa’s greatest photo-journalist. “His pictures of the Ethiopian famine in 1984 alerted the world to the unfolding tragedy and spurred massive relief efforts, he died aboard a hijacked Ethiopian airliner that was deliberately crashed into the Indian Ocean” [PB] |
