Thanks a lot. My dad took training in this company during 1960's. He was a metallurgical engineer from BHU, Varanasi. He had training in many prestigious companies in India as well as abroad. He was sent for training in this Company by the company where he worked, Aluminum Industries Ltd (ALIND), Hyderabad and Hirakud.

This is the view north out of the BFL plot, hence this train is facing west, i.e. towards Pune. Posted by Apurva Bahadur on 2012 Apr 15 18:27:53 +0000 |

Great album. This is the aerial view of the area. The railway spur into BFL is located at the North East corner, at the '+' of the cursor. Posted by Apurva Bahadur on 2012 Apr 15 18:25:15 +0000 |

I always think of it as a mini Sydney Harbour bridge, complementing the more famous Howrah bridge. Posted by Dr.Jitendra Mulky on 2012 Apr 03 00:38:39 +0000 |
Wow! I am speechless looking at these photographs. 1960s to 2012, more than 50 years have passed. I can relate to these pictures, because they depict railways I grew up watching, the WG steam locomotive, the 'C' wagon, the four wheeled box car, semaphore signals etc. The only thing that has remained unchanged, is sadly the images of laborers, same hard working, toiling people earning bare minimum wages. Hardly anything has changed for these citizens of our country, a sad reminder to our so-called "progress".
