  • Regarding Development of Waltair Division Under East Coast Railway
    an> Title: Regarding development of Waltair Division under East Coast Railway. SHRI RAM MOHAN NAIDU KINJARAPU (SRIKAKULAM): Hon. Speaker, through you, I would like to bring it to the notice of the Government, especially the Ministry of Railways, that there is an immediate requirement to develop Harishchandrapuram, which is in my constituency, Srikakulam. Madam, had I got the chance to speak in the discussion on the Railway Budget, I would have put this matter over there. As I did not get a chance, I am mentioning it now. HON. SPEAKER: All right. SHRI RAM MOHAN NAIDU KINJARAPU : Madam Speaker, in my constituency, there is a stretch of 150 kilometres of the National Highway which is a part of the Golden Quadrilateral connecting Chennai to Kolkata. On this 150 kilometres stretch, there is one railway station which is lying next to it. So, Harishchandrapuram station has got proper and excellent road connectivity. Also it is close to the coastal region. So, a lot of fishermen use this station to go to Vishakapatnam, which is the regional headquarters for the north Andhra Pradesh. Also students, patients and especially farmers and small time businessmen are also using this station. This is a very important station, which is located at a significant place in my constituency. I would request the Government of India to develop this station on priority because this station was built during the time of the British. It has been many years and not a single change has been made to this station. So, there is a requirement to lift the height of the platform in this station because women and children still need to use stools to get into train.

  • Speech of Mamata Banerjee Introducing the Railway Budget 2011-12 25Th February 2011
    Speech of Mamata Banerjee introducing the Railway Budget 2011-12 25th February 2011 1. Madam Speaker, I rise to present before this august House the Revised Estimates for 2010-11 and the estimated receipts and expenditure for 2011-12. I deem it an honour to present the third Railway Budget under the kind guidance of the hon'ble Prime Minister. I profusely thank the Finance Minster for his continued support and encouragement to the railways. 2. As the hon’ble members are aware, the wheels of the railways continue to move 24 hours, all 365 days. Railway’s services are comparable to emergency services, required all the time. I am proud of the 14 lakh members of my railway family, who toil day and night with unparalleled dedication. I am also grateful to all passengers without whose cooperation and consideration, we could not have run this vast system. I have also received unstinted support from our two recognised federations and staff and officers’ associations. 3. Madam, rail transportation is vitally interlinked with the economic development of the country. With the economy slated to grow at a rate of 8-9%, it is imperative that the railways grow at an even faster pace. I see the railways as an artery of this pulsating nation. Our lines touch the lives of humble people in tiny villages, as they touch the lives of those in the bustling metropolises. 4. We are taking a two-pronged approach, scripted on the one hand, by a sustainable, efficient and rapidly growing Indian Railways, and on the other, by an acute sense of social responsibility towards the common people of this nation.

  • Mono-Rail Guided Transport
    Mono-Rail guided Transport - From the 1902 Mono-Rail guided Bullock Cart in India to the 21th Century Centre Mono-Rail guided Los Angeles Automated Airport People Mover (LAX APM) in USA Indian Steam hauled Patiala Mono-Rail (1907-1927) preserved in running Condition in National Rail Museum at New Delhi By F.A. Wingler June 2019 1 From the 1902 Mono-Rail guided Bullock Cart in India to the 21th Century Mono-Rail guided Los Angeles Airport Automatic People Mover (LAX APM) in USA I. Mono-Rail guided Carriage Transport in India from 1902 to 1927 The first Mono-Rail guided goods carriage system, a road borne railway system, had been the Kundala Valley Railway in India, which was built in 1902 and operated between Munnar and Top Station in the Kannan Devan Hills of Kerala. It operated with a cart- vehicle, built to transport tea and other goods. The initial cart road was cut in 1902 and then replaced by the monorail goods carriage system along the road leading from Munnar to Top Station for the purpose of transporting tea and other products from Munnar and Madupatty to Top Station. This monorail was based on the Ewing System (see below) and had small steel-wheels placed on the mono-rail track while a larger wheel rested on the road to balance the monorail. The mono-rail was pulled by bullocks. Top Station was a trans-shipment point for delivery of tea from Munnar to Bodinayakkanur. Tea chests arriving at Top Station were then transported by an aerial ropeway from Top Station 5 km (3 mi) down-hill to the south to Kottagudi, Tamil Nadu, which popularly became known as "Bottom Station".
