My husband showed this photo and asked me if I can recognize the building. I said no but I could clearly see the railway track and so, it must be a railway station.
Yes! It is Royapuram railway station in Madras. It is said to be the oldest railway station that has survived nearly 155 years!
Knowing my love for deserted railway stations where a beggar and a couple of stray dogs who barely look up at trains that pass by, my husband urged me to visit a blog of his friend who has written more about the Royapuram railways station.
Click on the Royapuram railway station image above that would take you back to the British era.
