Hedjaz Railway - Kantara workshops in WWI - La Meuse 0-10-0T steam locomotive

The British military advance from Egypt to Palestine in WWI resulted in the takeover of several Turkish locomotives. This Hedjaz Railway locomotive (La Meuse 0-10-0T) is being overhauled in Kantara - a long way from the nearest HR railhead.
