Summary
Description 105-year-old historic steam rail engine installed at Darbhanga station.png |
English:
Steam engine installed at Darbhanga station. Manufactured in 1913 in England, the engine was imported by the then Darbhanga ruler, Maharaja Rameshwar Singh Bahadur (reigned 1898-1929), for use at state-of-the-art sugar mill at Lohat, which started production in 1914. The metre-gauge engine, bearing number 253 was used not only to move raw materials to the factory and finished product to different locations, but also to transport people over short distances. As decades passed, the locomotive was limited to plying within the sugar mill campus and remained operational till 1996 when the mill shut down.
