Jordan 20.9.2008: Our tour of the 1.05m gauge, former Hedjaz Railway, in Jordan and Syria, commenced at Jordan, Amman’s Al Mahata station, seen here little changed from the day it opened in the 1903. The coaching stock of the tour group’s train stands ready, two coaches each, built in the 1900s by the old firms of Roeulx and Baume & Marpent. In front of them is a bogie water tank (Nippon, Japan 1959), carrying an extra supply for the locomotive. Roger Griffiths; roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
Jordan 20.9.2008: A final picture of 2-8-2 No. 23 (RSH 7433/1952) as she climbs a low escarpment approaching Qatrana. Note evidence in the foreground of an attempt at cultivating the desert. Roger Griffiths; roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
Jordan 20.9.2008: Making cautious progress because of the many children invading the line to see the novelty of a train, 2-8-2 No. 23 (RSH 7433/1952) emerges from a deep and sharply curved rock cutting on the final approaches to Qasir. Looking into the right distance, a footbridge can be seen, crossing the dual-carriageway road. Just beyond that footbridge the railway crosses the road from left to right, to shortly after, enter Qasir station. Roger Griffiths; roger.griffiths@hotmail.com |
