This is the first draft of a page where I
will list questions and information's I am looking for related to the Iraq
railway stamps and it's postal service.
If you can help me to solve some
mysteries, I would be more then happy if you could contact me.
-
Who can provide me with an image of
the logo / monogram of the old Iraq Railway (not the logo of the new Iraq
Republican Railway)?
-
Who can provide me with old
photographs showing railway stations in Iraq?
-
Who can provide me with old Iraq
railway maps?
-
Who can confirm to me the location
of Ghuchan? (SOLVED)
-
Who can solve the mystery about the
railway stations Khadimain and Ali Juwadain. They are obviously
in Baghdad, listed as 2 different railway stations, but apparently identical
locations.
-
I.P.C. Camp (Iraq Petroleum
Company at the end of a short branch railway line to Kirkuk. This station /
halt puzzles me. After World War II the Iraq Petroleum Company opened their
branch at Kirkuk in January 1947. Now, how can this be a railway station with
a post office as being announced in the Iraq Post Office Guide 55 from 1930
when the railway branch line opened only in 1947? I assume that the I.P.C.
Camp had a post Office and was using railway stamps. The letters were canceled
at the post office and forwarded to the nearest railway station which was
Kirkuk.
-
Who can identify
this railway
station from Baghdad? Baghdad had 4 Railway Stations but unfortunately on
the card it is only mentioned Baghdad Station.
