Sir, myself and Kaushik Dharwadkar, with due permission from port authority, had gone once last year to trace remains of this station, if any. Sadly, a container terminal has come up where the platform is seen here and the far end seen here now houses the Passenger Cruise Terminal (which is just a HUGE waiting area with some immigration counters, all rarely or never used).

There appears to be only 1 FOB to go GIPR side. Folks must have considered it an extravagance back then. Posted by Dr.Jitendra Mulky on 2009 Dec 15 05:37:48 +0000 |

Peak time rush hour. I can seen 8 people and ghost outlines of 2 more. Posted by Dr.Jitendra Mulky on 2009 Dec 15 05:35:16 +0000 |
Doc, to me it looks more like PF-1 of mainline terminus because the FOB seen in the background exists even now between BCT and Mahalakshmi stations, so this photo was taken facing north. If that is the case, PF-1 of BCT local would be at the far left in this photo.
