The First Edition
was launched on 22nd Dec 1998 as "Konkan Railway - The Resource Page". Keeping with growth of the site and information, it
has now assumed a more dynamic name and purpose of being a Internet Resource Center
- with much more on offer. This page is thhe result of observation,
research and findings on the net. It forms a summary of the major developments
in recent time and serves as an useful reference page for anyone who needs
more info on this great project, indeed one of independent India's largest
engineering feat and transportation wonder. The site seeks to enlighten the
reader about the railway in a different way, presenting a collage of
information, as it is.
I have made this
attempt to compile related vast and diverse information and bring it together on a common accessible
platform. I hope above all that this work is able to satisfy the curiosity
of the reader about the KR system and bring new enlightenment. The site
is non commercial and is totally for information. Credit is due to the
original sources of the information. Links to these sites are provided
wherever available.
For frequent visitors to the site, since the maintenance of this site is done
only as a hobby, there will occassional delays in posting/updating content. But
each page will mention the date of last update so that the reader gets a idea on
how recent the information is. History : First Edition 22 Dec
