Mr. Carlos Vieira has forwarded us an interesting document...
"Greetings!
Please find attached an agreement dated 3rd January 1893 between SA Public Works Corporation Limited and Gloucester Railway Carriage & Wagon.
The agreement is of interest as it originates from one that has survived 114 years. That's a record!
I also enclose a photocopy of the original Princess Christian Hospital Train - the first hospital train in the world.
Yours sincerely,
Carlos Vieira"
