Delicacies of The Dang
Set of images from the Dang region. Situated in the South Gujrat, it is served by Narrow Gauge line from Bilimora to Waghai.
Bilimora platform scene just before the departure of morning service to Waghai.
Trail, not a Royal Coach (Taht's what I misread from far). This freshly overhauled coach tested four days attached to two services a day.
Large number of passengers waiting to board as the Waghai bound train arrives at Unai.
Train passing over the Ambika Bridge. It is a very rare occasion when the train run with all green "Eco Friendly" livery.
The route passes through the Vansda National Park and seen here the train amid thick Vansda Forest.
A 1922 Rail piece, manufactured for Jaipur State Railways. Perhaps it was relaid on Waghai-Bilimora line.
Piece of rail supporting the roof of Unai station, made originally for GIPR. This one bearing 1869 as manufacturing year, is the oldest rail piece (On or Off the track) I have seen so far.
On a crowded Sunday, the passengers disembarking at Anaval. The local water boys and Ice Candy seller sense the business opportunity and roam around the train with a great hope.
Dust flies as the Waghai passenger arrives at major halt en route, Unai and Vansda Road.
