Table of Contents - Eritrean Ry & Ry


A website devoted to material concerning the Eritrean Railway and Ropeway. This is "Unofficial" because it is not operated or otherwise officially sanctioned by the Eritrean Government.

Eritrean Links Includes quasi official and private country sites and sites for Americans who served in Eritrea at Kagnew Station and the Peace Corps.

Request: There is an organization of former Italian Colonists for Libya and Italian Somoliland. It stands to reason there is a similar organization for Eritrea, but I have been unable to find it. If you are aware of such an organization, please let me know.

Rail Links There are a few other sites out there which have materials on the Eritrean Railway. These are collected here. Where appropriate, there will be links to these sites on pages elsewhere on this site.
Bibliography The citations and reference material used on this site.
Disclaimer Legal stuff.
Opening Picture Tells you a little bit about the background picture, taken by Chuck Moulton, used on the home page

Scrapbook

A scrapbook traditionally contains bits and pieces of collectable flat material...clippings, photographs and lockets of hair. I don't have any lockets of hair here, but I have snippets about the Railway and Ropeway. I have primarily divided this material by Who, What, Why, When and Where.

Wanted Site material that I need. If you have any unique materials related to the line which can be scanned, typed or photographed, I would like to see them.
