Dealer Notes
A nicely produced guide to the railway, which was completed in 1929 and ran from Lobito Bay on the Angolan coast to Luau. The booklet is titled on the front cover “Benguela Railway The Great West Gate to Central Africa via Lobito Bay”. The cover mentions maps and a time table as being contained inside the rear flap, but the time-table is not present in this copy; other copies listed by OCLC seem also to lack the time-table,
