		The channel on either side of the island—Mombasa to the N.E., Kilindini to the S.W.—affords safe harbourage, and each leads to a deeper ramification of the sea, Mombasa Harbour to Port Tudor, Kilindini Harbour to Port Reitz.
		Mombasa town is on the N.E. side of the island, 2 M. from Kilindini, with which it is connected by rail and tramways.
		It is consequently not so suitable for large ships as Kilindini (" the place of deep water "), which possesses the finest land-locked harbour on the East Coast of Africa.

		In the 1940s sailors and visitors arriving by ship would have seen lush vegetation with great baobabs clustered at the edge of the grey coral cliffs together with coconut palms, varieties of giant tropical figs, flame trees and spathodeas with their brilliant red blooms and casuarina pines mingled with broad-leafed indigenous trees.

		As soon as I landed, therefore, I enquired from one of the Customs officials where the headquarters of the railway were to be found, and was told that they were at a place called Kilindini, some three miles away, on the other side of the island.
		On arrival at Kilindini, I made my way to the railway Offices and was informed that I should be stationed inland and should receive further instructions in the course of a day or two.
		Kilindini is, as I have said, on the opposite side of the island, and as its name -- "the place of deep waters" -- implies, has a much finer harbour than that possessed by Mombasa.

		Owing to lack of space for a single camp on Mombasa Island, it was decided that three separate camps were needed with the first one accommodating 80 draftsman, clerical inspectors and foremen; the second 800 (made up of 60 chargemen; 600 skilled and 140 semi-skilled workmen) while the third would accommodate 700 native labourers.
