The Metro Railway, Kolkata, on Sunday formally bade farewell to non-AC rakes, some of which have been in service since its inception as the country’s first underground railway in 1984.
The Kolkata Metro, which started operations on this day in 1984, organised an exhibition ‘Down the Memory Lane’ at Mahanayak Uttam Kumar station to mark the departure of the non-AC rakes.
“As part of the farewell, we have organised a photo exhibition that will depict the past, present and future of Metro Railway,” General Manager Manoj Joshi told reporters.
He said it is an opportunity to relive the moments that the city has shared with the Metro Railway, which have become an integral part of people’s lives.
