This certainly looks like one of the Neral Matheran railcars. Probably quite early as it carries number 2, rather than an IR number.
It looks like the one which is now in the NRM sadly in deteriorating condition.

Another early picture of the Matheran line. Note the water tank wagon behind the loco, and the closed (first class?) coach at the rear.

This is a very early picture of the Matheran line, taken soon after opening - about 1907

I faced such 'sand breaches' while working on jodhpur division. You can see the top of the token collection net next to the turnout, on the left side, partly buried.

This GIP coach has a Co-Co bogie. Some of the track testing coaches have bogie on one side.
