POSTCARD TITLE:   Scenes on Uganda Railway

POSTMARK:    Aug 20, 1913

PUBLISHER:   None Listed

TYPE/BACK:    Vintage, Divided Back

COMMENTS:  
This railway, leading from Mombassa to Nairobi, was built under the greatest difficulties.  The work on this particular viaduct, built by an American firm, was held up for several months because so many of the workers were killed by lions that the rest became panic stricken, and refused to work.

The corners of the card are slightly rounded.  Nice color.  Check the image for more details.
