A Wet Country and Rain Wrecks on Colombo Rail
A travel note describes a difficult railway in Ceylon where heavy rain causes landslides and washouts. On December 27, 1896, eleven and a half inches of rain swept the line near a tunnel, forcing passengers to evacuate as rock and debris toppled the embankment. Some cars were lost but no fatalities reported. The piece also mentions the British government owning many camels and their use in India for moving stores during military relocations.
