#Know_Your_History #Old_IR_Maps
Sharing some very OLD and official Map of Indian Railway System
These high resolution #Map (except B/W) are very authentic and are of 1931/1942-43 and 1956
These Maps also clearly proves that Indian Railways has no proper authentic info about her own history thus often gives wrong info in pulic
Example
...
more...
is New Kosi Mega Rail Bridge
As can be seen here the wasn't Kosi even in 1943 or after so question of any Bridge destruction due to massive Earthquake of 15th January 1934.
In fact the rail service between #Darbhanga & #Saharsa was very much running even after 1942 then due to massive flood and course change by Kosi one Raharia (रहडीया) station between #Nirmali-Bhapatiahi (Saraigarh) washed away and lost forever because present day Kosi stayed there.
I am sharing some Maps showing very authentic and rare info of our Railway system and the B/W map is of BNWR
1-1931Eastern India Railway Map Hi-Resolution
2-1942-43 India Railway Map Hi-Resolution
3-1956 India Railway Map Hi-Resolution
4-BNWR Normal Resolution

Just because of George Fernandes
Not only he made Konkan Railway but restored (Bugaha-Chhitauni) Valmikinagar-Paniyahwa rail link which is used for freight movement also.
Lots of new sections came up recently but none are used for long distance services even if they are good alternates.

JBP-G line has been unofficially declared as Central DFC. Residents are happy with malgadi and they do not want passenger trains. :(

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
