Okinawa Soba's pictures from old Bermuda

Okinawa Soba is 1) the name of “a type of noodle soup eaten in Okinawa” (see the Wikipedia article) and 2) the name behind a large collection of photographs on Flickr (see Okinawa Soba’s photostream) mainly of old Japan. However, the collection also includes a set of about 75 pictures of Bermuda in the 1930s that were developed and hand-coloured in Japan.

Five of those pictures show the Bermuda Railway. Okinawa Soba was kind enough to tell me about them when he discovered this site, and suggest that I might want to add them. So here they are (click a photo to enlarge it) .

Hamilton Harbour

Hamilton harbour. Away in the distance on Front Street you can just make out what appear to be two Bermuda Railway trains, one right after the other.
