chotelal | Bridging east & west for a century on : September 08, 2013 - 00:00:03 AM |
The Parel-Elphinstone railway bridge completes a century. In an era when mills have given way for malls and tall glass towers, this iron bridge built by the Great Indian Peninsula railway (now called Central Railway) in 1913 to replace a level crossing on the railway lines continues to serve loyally.“The bridge is a mix of stone and iron structure built by local contractors with material from Glasgow. It had an attached booking office to it on the Western Railway, one of the few railway stations to have one such,” recalls a railway engineer with the Central Railway.The Bombay Gazetteer states that the municipal body had refused to share cost of the bridge and the Great Indian Peninsula Railway went ahead and got it built at its own cost. The material had been shipped from P&W Works based at Glasgow in 1911 and by 1913 the bridge was ready. The bridge was built by Parsi railway contractors Contractor Bomanji Rustomji.Local residents, however, say that there was an old and temporary bridge at the location before this one came up. Seventy-year-old Parshuram Walje, an old resident of the area, says that he remembers his parents telling him about an old narrow, temporary iron bridge that was once at the location.“This large bridge became a necessity when motorised vehicles had begun to grow,” he said. Motorised vehicles were introduced in Bombay ten years before this bridge came up in the first decade of 20th century. |
puneetmafia | Northern Railway tightens security in Delhi, railway stations get CCTV surveillance system on : September 08, 2013 - 00:00:26 AM |
The CCTV cameras have been provided at platforms and surrounding areas and their footage is being made available in the main control room, which is manned by security personnel around the clock.

greatindian | रेलवे ने दी एक और नई सुविधा, ऑनलाइन बुक कर सकेंगे डॉरमेट्री व रिटायरिंग रूम on : September 08, 2013 - 00:00:36 AM |
बिलासपुर। आने वाले दिनों में आप जोन के रेलवे स्टेशनों में उपलब्ध रिटायरिंग रूम और डॉरमेट्री की बुकिंग ऑनलाइन करा सकेंगे। यह सुविधा आईआरसीटीसी द्वारा दी जानी थी, लेकिन देशभर के स्टेशनों की जानकारी तैयार करने में समय लग रहा है। नतीजतन दक्षिण पूर्व मध्य रेलवे ने अपने स्तर पर यात्रियों को ऑनलाइन बुकिंग की सुविधा देने की योजना बनाई है। यह सुविधा अगले तीन महीने के भीतर लागू होगी। |

puneetmafia | तीन वर्ष पूर्व मिली हरी झंडी नहीं हो सका रैक प्वाइंट चालू on : September 08, 2013 - 00:00:52 AM |
जिला के व्यवसासियों की मांग एक दशक बीतने के बावजूद आज तक पूरी नहीं हो सकी है. दरभंगा में रैक प्वाइंट व्यापारियों के लिए चालू नहीं किया गया है. तीन वर्ष पूर्व इसको लेकर विभागीय हरी झंडी को किसने, कब और क्यों ‘लाल’ कर दिया, बताने वाला कोई नहीं है. इस वजह से न केवल कारोबारियों को परेशानी हो रही है, बल्कि इसका खामियाजा आमजन को भुगतना पड़ रहा है. साथ ही सड़क जाम की समस्या कहीं न कहीं इस कारण बड़ी होती जा रही है. बावजूद रेल प्रशासन इस ओर तवज्जो नहीं दे रहा. रेलवे की लापरवाही व घोषणा के बाद भी व्यवस्था धरातल पर उतरता नहीं देख स्थानीय व्यवसायी संगठन भी शिथिल पड़ गया है. हालांकि वरीय अधिकारियों के समक्ष यह मुद्दा अब भी उठाया जा रहा है, पर नतीजा सिफर है. |
railenquiry | ट्रेन इंजन से फूटी डीजल की फुहार, भगदड़ on : September 08, 2013 - 02:56:11 AM |
कानपुर, एक प्रतिनिधि: सेंट्रल स्टेशन पर शनिवार को हादसा होते-होते बच गया। बांदा पैसेंजर ट्रेन रवाना होने के लिए प्लेटफार्म नंबर छह पर खड़ी थी। ड्राइवर ने चलाने के लिए डीजल इंजन की रेस बढ़ाई तो धुएं के बजाय तेल की धार फूट पड़ी। यह देख प्लेटफार्म पर भगदड़ मच गई तो घबराए ड्राइवर ने इंजन को फौरन बंद कर दिया, वर्ना आग लगने पर बड़ी घटना हो सकती थी। |
