An island off the arabian peninsular off the coast of Oman- the base was built as a staging post during the war.
The RAF pulled out in 1976
The "Masirah State Railway" was 3.5 miles of narrow guage railway built during the war so the site must have been quite large

An island,large site - wonder if there's anything left!
