For the Railways , a social obligation ; for these gangmen , a life line. The water tanker (ex milk wagon) atttached to the 207 Viramgam - Okha Passeneger supplies water to an underground tank at a wayside ganghut. Very ingeniously, a discarded telegraph pole is used for a conduit to transfer the water. Somewhere between Hapa and Jamnagar stations. 2004-01. By AVIMANYU PYNE (for Showcase).

Really unusual picture. Great work! However, the word in the caption should be ingeniously, not ingeneously.

IR can use this bogie on all tanker wagons.speed of the goods train can be increased.

Note the bogies. It is a regular ICF coach bogie and not that of a Goods train. Got to be ICF coach bogie, because this tanker was regularly hauled on passenger trains going by the fact that this was a milk tanker,
