Looking for information about:

  • Yolanda is looking for books about WW2 that describe "brave acts by Portuguese and Macanese people."
  • Alexander Findlay SMITH [1844-1926] was the man behind the Peak Tram. His previous employment on the Highland Railway in Scotland is often mentioned in connection with that. Does anyone know what work he did on the Highland Railway?
