Dire Dawa panorama, c. 1915

Dire Dawa, Ethiopia

Panorama of Dire Dawa, with the new train station in the background c. 1915. The first train station, built in wood, had been demolished c. 1913-1914. The Franco-Ethiopian Railway Line was Dire Dawa's raison d'être then, and virtually Ethiopias' only link with the outside world. Postcard issued c. 1915.
