Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

It is fascinating to read about the three surviving steam bastions, especially the 25 km Changa Manga forest railway and the 1927 Andrew Barclay locomotive captured by Peter Lemmey. The history here is remarkable: a plantation begun in 1866 as a wood repository for steam engines, with B. Ribbentrop’s first working plan in 1871-72 and large-scale Sheesham planting by 1888. I especially appreciate that the town’s name traces back to the eighteenth-century bandits Changa and Manga, which adds a folklore layer to the railway story. For anyone who enjoys scoring systems as much as railway history, Krillion rarity tiers breaks down rarity tiers in a similarly methodical way. It is bittersweet that the Khyber Pass line was partly swept away in the 2007 floods, making these surviving operations even more precious. Thank you for preserving and sharing this detailed slice of Pakistan’s railway and forestry heritage.
