Mayank Tewari(MD, NRM) should be informed regarding this prestige for a restoration.

A very interesting and poignant gallery of things that were. But please, the area looks overgrown, and very damp: ideal snake territory. Please be careful as poisonous reptiles lurk under such conditions. Lucky you only encountered a water snake. Very evocative gallery nonetheless.

The ancient'R' class wagon you refer to is actually a modern CRT wagon. The R is the return (for POH) date. It seems to be dated some 2001 or so.

These dilapilated structures will be perfect locations for Ram Sey's brothers horror films.

Thanks, Jimmy for a marvellous album.Is there any chance of uploading a rough map or diagram to show where the pics fit into the overall plan of the station?

Hey Jimmy, thanks for sharing the sad story of the dilapidated Ernakulam Terminus with us.

A very good collection in detail about the lost glory.

Jimmy, combined with the presentation you made at BNC, this really transports us back to the days of glory of the Cochin State. Though, it is indeed heartwrenching to see the deterioration now.

After the Cochin Harbour Terminus, here comes another master-piece (or master-pieces actually) by Jimmy.
Great work.
