					<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>

We&#8217;ve been incredibly fortunate to be offered the use of their record of this little-seen building on this website. Now with new diagrams, historic photos, and a new interpretation of the [&#8230;]]]></description>

Close scrutiny of the details suggest it’s not Ai, but challenges all previously understood history of the [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[At the old station in Birkirkara last week, the Government of Malta recently went live with a bold new strategy to transport: Malta in Motion. It’s an ambitious multi-modal approach to satisfying the needs of 21st century Malta, focussing on connectivity between improved bus, car, bicycle, and ferry services. Naturally, most of the public interest [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This photo was sold as a 1950s view of races at Notabile, but is in fact the St Rocco races held in August outside the walls of Floriana for centuries. It&#8217;s Malta Railway interest lies in the inclusion of the Princess Melita Road railway bridge framing the view. Taken near Ta Braxia (today&#8217;s Triq L-indipendenza), [&#8230;]]]></description>

It shows the view looking north down Princess Melita Road, now Triq L&#8217; Indipendenza, in the direction of Pieta. The focus of the image is the short train hauled by locomotive No.2 posed on the bridge, [&#8230;]]]></description>

They&#8217;re unusual as they are all preserved with their counterfoils still attached, suggesting they were never used. The colourful spectrum of tickets covers Third Class, Military, and Workmen&#8217;s tickets for each &#8220;zone&#8221; the line [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[One of the early proposals for a railway in Malta was promoted by Major Hutchinson, an officer of the Royal Artillery, recorded as being promoted in rank to take control of a bastion in Malta in 1872. His railway wasn&#8217;t conventional, in fact it was bizarre: a British Government experiment for a lightweight military railway [&#8230;]]]></description>
