It indeed is a rope as mentioned by Manohar.

It is also sad that many tram routes have been stopped and only very few routes are still in operation.

I think it is a rope used to pull the Pantograph
and align with the overhead cable, should it come out
while negotiating points etc. Not sure if it had conducting
wire..

This is a single coach tram, that use to ply in the routes around Howrah. one of them have been refurbished and serves as a tourist Tram now a days. There are twin cabs on both sides, with passenger seating space in the middle.

it is electric powered dude!! Diesel smoke will fill the tunnel and choke the passengers :-) BTW!! the Red looking third track provides the electrical connection.

Is this electric or diesel powered?

this cannot be diesel powered or else it will not be able to go underground. I see some sort of cells in place of diesel tank. Somebody please crosscheck.
