Railway HistoryAlicedale is a railway junction on the main railway line between Johannesburg and Port Elizabeth. From here a branch line leads to Grahamstown. The town was a railway training facility during the previous two centuries, from there the historical red facebrick building that now houses the reception of the resort hotel. The town was named for Mrs. Alice Slessor,{{efn|A number of sources including Raper assert that Alice Slessor's maiden name was Dale. This is incorrect, the record of their marriage at St John's Church in the Parish of Paddington, on 10 September 1867[2] clearly indicates that Alice's name was Malton and that she was a spinster at the time of her marriage.}} the wife of the engineer in charge of construction of the railways.[3] Buildings of interest
