With grateful thanks to Charl and Brigadier Hennie Heymans, author of the Nongqai magazine, the site has been given permission to share 3 issues of the magazine. The three issues are all about trains in war, and for the most part, the Anglo Boer war. There is a tremendous amount of information here: 361 pages of text and images.



Part 1 (177 pages)

Part 2 (121 pages)

Part 3 (63 pages)

There is so much research in those three publications and lots of excellent photographs too.
