Natal Arrival of Railway Workers 1885

These lists show contingents of platelayers "engaged by the Crown Agents for service on Natal Government Railways" and brought out, most with their families, in 1885 on various vessels. The date shown is that of arrival at Natal and where not otherwise stated all were accompanied by wives and in some cases, children.

Railway extension was considered a matter of life and death to the commercial interests of Natal at this time. The line to Pietermaritzburg had been officially opened on 1 December 1880 - the Inchanga Viaduct being completed in July of that year. Construction commenced on the section beyond Pietermaritzburg in 1883, Howick being reached in 1884, then Estcourt 1885, Ladysmith 1886 and Charlestown (the Transvaal border) opened 7 April 1891. The railway would play a vital part in the Anglo-Boer War towards the end of the decade.

For more details, see The Birth & Development of the Natal Railways by E D Campbell, Shuter & Shooter PMB 1951). The Colony of Natal: An Official Illustrated Handbook & Railway Guide by J Forsyth Ingram (Sir Joseph Causton & Sons London 1895) has a good map of the Natal railway system at that date including details of agricultural production in each area. 

Some of the passengers' names shown here appear in the Natal Civil Service Lists, giving clues as to their later careers. Many worked as platelayers.

A platelayer fastens or repairs fastenings on railway lines. The term derives from the rectangular metal plates that bolt or rivet the ends of the lines to each other so joining the expansion gap that causes the familiar clickety-click as the train wheels go over them. The plate is known as a fish-plate.
