Unity and Independence the pillage conducted by the Ikhwan in the name of their ideological commitment. In 1913 Saudi forces comprised of both regular conscripts and Ikhwan drove the Ottomans from Hufuf, capital of the verdant Eastern Province, which had been under Ottoman control since 1871. This gave Ibn Saud control of both Najd and the Eastern Province. In the Ottoman-Saudi Treaty signed in the aftermath of the Saudi victory, Ibn Saud agreed to recognize Ottoman suzerainty in the area and stood to lose their livelihood, attacked the line. Its military use also drew opposition. When World War I erupted, its strategic importance made it a military target. T. E. Lawrence, who led British efforts to support the Arab Revolt, helped destroy trains and track as part of the anti-Ottoman campaign. By war’s end the rail line was unusable. Plans to rebuild the railway were proposed over succeeding years until as late as 1971. However, road and air transportation obviated its need. Broken remnants of track and trains still lie along its route. Today the remains of the Hijaz Railway are among the few visible reminders of the many outsiders whose plans for conquest have perished in the harsh environment of Arabia. The train stations of the Hijaz Railway were built so they could double as fortresses. Note the height of the first-floor windows above the ground.
