Elphinstone Road

June 1987: me wear 'working woman' shoes.
Temporary vacancy kind. Me love WWS

me discover love for local trains too!  Also, a love forthe quaint railway station I alight. Actually, for most part,  its British name.
Elphinstone Road. Apparently
Named after Mountstuart Elphinstone,Governor  of (when it was still) Bombay.

What follow is a daily routine......A quick look to the left, hurriedly Cross the tracks, slip through a hole in the railway wall to reach the other side. In short, a short cut.

1995 to 1998: back to alighting at Elphinstone road for another job.
Same short cut!

2001to 2003 and 2006-07: nothing has changed.

15.01. 2015: as my eyeS seek the familiar short cut, i see a whole over bridge carefully constructed by the railway authorities, where the hole was.

Well, have to admit,though late, very late, things do change in India( other than the mandatory change of names of landmark places of course) and sometimes for the better!( and that too in this case, unlike some other unlucky guys,  managing to escape  a change of its' british heritage' name!)
