In February 1996 I travelled to Mozambique to shoot a documentary about the world's most beat-up railway -- the 30-mile line between Xai-Xai and Manjacaze.
It was hot. There were snakes and landmines underfoot. The track ties were rotten. The engine leaked steam from every gland and valve.
This short clip, scanned from Super 8mm film shows the Friday train leaving the Limpopo River valley and heading north to Manjacaze.
We had broken both tripods, hence the shaky camerawork. The rest of the reels should be better.
