Lecture | The Lunatic Line: The Story of the Train Karen Blixen Took from Mombasa to Nairobi


In 1896, the British undertook to build a 660-mile railroad through a vast trackless wilderness from the Indian Ocean port of Mombasa to the shores of Lake Victoria. The project, officially known as the Uganda Railway but rechristened the Lunatic Line, took five years and cost 5 million British pounds. The men who built it were largely workers imported from the Indian subcontinent and supervised by British officers, many of whom made up their engineering solutions on the spot. The story of why and how the Lunatic Line came to be involves Britain’s desire to control the Suez Canal, digging Rhinoceroses, man-eating lions, growing coffee, and the evils of colonialism. Speaker Annamaria Alfieri is the author of Strange Gods, set in the burgeoning British East African town of Nairobi in 1911.
