Of the former British line (built in 1942) from Haifa in Palestine to Beirut and Tripoli in Lebanon, all that is left is a short section from Haifa to Akko (or Acre) and Naharia. ISR #125 is about to pull out of Akko with the usual midday train to Naharia, another several miles due north of Haifa and Akko. The leading coach is an ex-British Rail stock, one of several such coaches now replaced by new IC3 trainsets. 26 September 1996. Photo and scan by Alon Siton
