EDITORS COMMENTS
Mauritius - Moka Railway Station: A Blast from the Past of Mauritian Industrial Transportation Step back in time with this photograph of Mauritius' Moka Railway Station, circa 1905. This evocative image showcases the narrow gauge industrial railway lines that once connected sugar mills with nearby sugar cane plantations on the beautiful island nation in the Indian Ocean. The railway system played a significant role in the island's thriving sugar industry during the 1900s. Steam locomotives, like the ones preserved in this photograph, were the backbone of this transportation network, efficiently moving raw sugar cane from the fields to the mills for processing. As your eyes wander through the scene, you'll notice the intricate details of the railway infrastructure. Steam locomotives, their smokestacks billowing plumes of white steam, stand ready to embark on their next journey. Wagons and carriages, filled with freshly cut sugar cane, are being loaded onto the trains, while others are being unloaded at the station. Ox carts and oxen, traditional modes of transportation on the island, can be seen in the background, adding a unique contrast to the modern railway technology. The hustle and bustle of the railway station reflects the industrious spirit of Mauritius during this era, as the country's economy flourished through the trade of sugar and other crops. This photograph serves as a testament to Mauritius' rich history and the pivotal role the railway system played in its development. Today, many of these preserved steam locomotives can be found at various sugar mills around the island, offering visitors a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the island's vibrant industrial heritage.
