Yes Apu.. that sure looks like the case. One can see that there is nothing connecting the arm to a cable or such thing - just the counter-weight.

How are the semaphores seen at night? There is no light behind the discs.

Oh so nice to look at the bustling station - there is even a tea stall on the right!! Far cry from the time in 2005 when we visited - this was a desertede area and we were wondering whether the station would ever see passengers again- really wonderful to see the sea change!

I remember our trek two years back at the very same spot to see the tracks washed away - a real heartening sight. Its great to the line in action once again - after news at that time that the line might never be fixed again:(. Vivek - is there a new alignment now since the tracks in the picture have not been fixed?

The space on right hand side of the track looks dangerously deep.
