A reminder of MG days on MMR-AWB section. This unused MG rail is hung and a mettalic rod is inserted within it. This unused MG rail is struck with the mettalic rod whenever a train is ready to depart from DLB. Pic taken at daulatabad station which is 18kms away from aurangabad (Maharashtra). ()

This system is still followed on most of the small stations. Appreciate the skill of the khalashi to get typical tone from the striking.
