IIRC the Osprey book by Donald Featherstone (Khartoum 1885 ?) has some very good illustrations.

have a look through the old posts on this forum..I'm sure someone recently posted about what Suakin looked like. I imagine that Khartoum couldn't have looked too different .

There is a diagram on page70 showing Khartoum in 1884 and it is based on a map by Slatin Pasha.
Hope that helps.
