- This footage accompanies William C. Found's chapter of The Colonial Landscape of the British Caribbean, edited by Roger Leech and Pamela Leech.
The book is available for purchase at boydellandbrew....
350 years after the first clearing of the forest to create a classic sugar cane landscape between sea-level and the 1000-foot contour, sugar production was threatened by more efficient, large-scale production elsewhere. The year 2005 was the island’s last sugar crop. The sugar railway is now used by a modern scenic train, which offers passengers an unparalleled journey into one of the Caribbean’s most important heritage landscapes. The film (46 minutes) follows the train’s journey, with side trips to great houses, sugar mills, and Brimstone Hill Fortress; and uses historical maps and drawings to complement the contemporary filming.
This video was filmed, written and directed by William C. Found and produced with assistance from Bob McKenzie, Jacqueline Armony and Carolyn King.

The people of St. Kitts need ALL 8 PLP candidates to win.
The people of Nevis need ALL 3 NRP candidates to win. ALL 11 candidates in a PLP-NRP government of alliance will work immensely hard with Prime Minister Dr. the Hon. Timothy Sylvester Harris to significantly accelerate and advance individual, family, community, constituency and national development that Prime Minister Dr. Timothy Sylvester Harris has started executing and implementing to improve lives and livelihoods of Kittitians and Nevisians. Kindly VOTE for the candidates of PLP on St. Kitts and please VOTE for the candidates of NRP on Nevis.
Fully REJECT, NEGLECT and AVOID CCM, PAM and SKNLP. Leaders of CCM, PAM and SKNLP are traitors, betrayers, mega-thievesss and misappropriaters of public funds who are hungry for power but in the court of public opinion some are guilty of breaking up the UNITY Administration that was in government in The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis while others are guilty of putting 17 % tax on us and putting us in the hands of the IMF before Prime Minister Dr. the Hon. Timothy Harris rescued us.
Therefore, why do the CCM, PAM and SKNLP grossly incompetent political leaders want to go back into government where they were before they selfishly abandoned the institution and voluntarily came out or where they were before they were voted out of office? Think seriously about these salient issues - my family members and friends - and be ye convinced that it is BEST for each electorate in St. Kitts to VOTE for PLP and for each electorate in Nevis to VOTE for NRP. I thank you.
This train was way too long and you could not understand the person speaking over the speakers. They need new speakers. 45 mins would of been long enough. But there is is only one way.
Citizens and residents of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis please VOTE for the People's Labour Party - PLP. Dr. the Hon. Timothy Sylvester Harris continues to do an awesomely superior job of service in leading the Government of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis.
Citizens and residents of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis kindly vote to keep candidates of the: Concerned Citizens' Movement which is abbreviated as CCM;
People's Action Movement which is abbreviated as PAM;
St. Kitts and Nevis Labour Party which is abbreviated as SKNLP
far, far, far out of government. Please refuse and avoid and do not vote for any of the electoral candidates in the CCM or in the PAM or in the SKNLP. These persons include Mark Brantleyyy, Jonel Powelll, Lindsay Granttt, Shawn Richardsss, Alexis Jeffersss and Eric Evelynnn who are traitors to the maximum. Therefore, VOTE for the electoral candidates of the People's Labour Party - PLP. Hence, VOTE for the electoral candidates of the People's Labour Party - PLP. I thank you.

Today - Monday 16th May, 2022 - is the second (2nd) day in Family Month 2022 which is now being observed by the citizens and residents of The Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis (TFSKN). With pleasure, I gladly consider it my civic duty to encourage citizens and residents of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis to campaign hard for then VOTE for the eight candidates who will be contesting the upcoming General Elections for the People’s Labour Party - PLP. Dr. the Hon. Timothy Sylvester Harris is by far the best person to lead TFSKN. Under the leadership of Dr. the Hon. Timothy S. Harris the Federation continues to make great strides and accomplishments particularly in the areas of Finance specifically as it relates to the National Economy, National Security, Legal Affairs, Industry & Trade, Health, Tourism and Education just to name a few ministries. Please strongly reject, clearly neglect, blatantly avoid and out rightly refuse Mark Brantleyy, Alexis Jefferss, Eric Evelynn, Jonel Powelll, Lindsay Grantt and Shawn Richardss who are all traitors to the maximum and who are fully loaded with self greed and ignorance. Family and friends please also DO NOT SUPPORT any candidate who will be running for The St. Kitts and Nevis Labour Partyy because these people are equally not fit to be in government. Therefore, kindly VOTE for the 8 candidates of the People’s Labour Party - PLP. Once you campaign hard for the People’s Labour Party (PLP) and VOTE for the People’s Labour Party (PLP) to ensure that Dr. the Hon. Timothy Sylvester Harris remains in the office as Prime Minister of The Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis, the Prosperity agenda will be advanced and executed to immensely benefit person in lowest economic group.
Hence, please VOTE for the People’s Labour Party - PLP.
I thank you.
