Notice the lack of plastic which makes the tracks even on a big station like NGP so very clean.

Wow! My Favourite TN in Raj livery. The Platform and the rails are far too cleaner than the present day. Thanks for the treasure, Ujjwal

Very nice set of pictures that gives all railfans a chance to see the early era of Indian Railways. Thanks to all for bringing it up at IRFCA.

A nice picture. Dharwad station has seen a lot of changes over the past two years. New lines are being laid since SWR has decided to terminate a few trains at Dharwad instead of Hubli.
The crew don't seem to be in the train. It is possible that they asked for relief and took the Miraj- Hubli passenger to Hubli. The train is now probably waiting for a crew to take the rake to Hospet.
