					<description><![CDATA[The recent acquisition of a large batch of old photos has furnished us with some interesting new insights into the Malta railway after closure in 1931. After services were ended in 1931, most of the railway property was divided amongst Government departments. Hamrun station, however, remained as the thriving campus for the technical school. It [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[We’re grateful to the Malta Department of Information Archives for having searched their collections for Malta Railway images. Amongst these, shown above, was a new and unpublished image that gives new insight on one of the more enigmatic buildings on the line. The ticket office at Hamrun station was added after the line fell under [&#8230;]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve had one version of it for many years, but it was heavily retouched by the publisher, and not very reliable in the details. The card was posted in 1914 and shows the station after rebuilding in [&#8230;]]]></description>

One of the more regularly overlooked fragments surviving from the Malta Railway is a section of cutting wall visible along the north side of Triq Kappillan Mifsud.

					<description><![CDATA[Rifling again through the drawings collections of National Archives of Malta, I returned to a set of plans for the Malta Electric Railway. My attention was first focussed on drawings showing the relationship with the Malta Railway, the “Government Railway”, but then expanded to cover the whole of this mysterious proposal. &#160; There is virtually [&#8230;]]]></description>

It&#8217;s a lovely alternative angle on Valletta station scanned from a glass lantern slide, with some important detail that helps date it. A train is just pulling into the recently extended station platform [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Some sources suggest that the Malta railway only ever raised its ticket prices once, in 1900. Whilst it&#8217;s true that that the halfpenny increase in third class fares met with rebellion from the Council of Government, the picture is more complex. Under the Malta Railway Co, fares began optimistically high in order to try and [&#8230;]]]></description>

The intention behind this gallery was to give some life to some historic monochrome views, and to bring some composite photos together in an engaging and convincing manner. The composites bring together modern or historic photographs with collaged elements from other historic railway images. The concept is not new; [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Malta Railway never produced much advertising material. Most printed matter associated with the line was in the form of timetables, tickets, paperwork, and the odd official report. The original Company created a few basic printed posters promoting events, but these were for basic information rather than anything eye-catching. To fill this void, I&#8217;ve created [&#8230;]]]></description>

The main building can be clearly seen but in an incomplete state. Also visible is a contractors truck and temporary railway, but beyond these curiosities is another feature: a small stone-built cabin. This [&#8230;]]]></description>
