• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Mr Henderson's Railway as it is known, more formerly the Algeciras to Ronda line, was built at a time when Britain was a colonial power, her industry led the world and, as far as her industrialists, financiers and entrepreneurs were concerned, nothing was impossible.
In an age when it was considered a privilege to be born British and everybody else was somewhere further down the ladder the British accomplished extraordinary feats. One such feat was the Algeciras to Bobadilla railway, not just a project to build a railway line, it was a just one part of a plan to connect the disputed territory of British held Gibraltar to the outside world through, if not enemy then less than friendly territory, Spain. This is the story of that railway line and the villages and towns on the route.
