Passengers scribbled messages on the train coaches with chalks "Meter gauge’s last journey"

It runs from Omkareshwar to Badwah, Balwara, Choral, Kalakud and Patalpani to Mhow

The British government laid the track for goods trains in 1877

In 1873, the Holkar Estate government had sanctioned a loan of Rs 1 crore to the British government

Many boarded the train departing Mhow on Monday and Omkareshwar Road on Tuesday in order to be a part of history

The Railways is gearing up for the broad gauge in this section.
