My father and i were travelling to Sheikhupura city. As soon as i saw "Railway Station", i requested my father to park the car somewhere so that i can get the close view of railway station.
From distance, it was an orange color vehicle on track. I was curious that what is it, actually?
Why orange color instead of green color old rails?
Instantaneously, there were so many questions popping up in my mind. I was eager to know that what is this orange color thing?
It was looking more like crane and tractor and standing on railway track. It was like a roller for the road. There were no one to answer my queries.
These days, i am getting help from "Google Lense". I saw "Plasser and Theurer". I googled it and found that it's Austrian Railway Company and this yellow color vehicle is for maintaince of railway track.
Green trains are now lost in time but still in my country these trains are alive. Only one compartment was hinged there.
I sat down to capture the photo of metallic tyre of compartment. It's design is quite complex and something was written on it.
Train green compartment was hinged with maintenance vehicle. Green cabin was locked and there was no way to enter in the cabin. I wanted to sit inside and see outside from the window but black color lock was blocking my way.
Stairs were leading to may be an abandoned room. It was visible that this buidling is old. When i went upstairs i heard voice from inside. Stairs were weak because of time and i was careful while stepping my feet on stairs.
I took some pictures from stairs. Red color cabin was opened but I didn't dare to see inside. The only thing which i could see was a fan.
I walked down and stopped to see building. The writing on the building grapped my attention. I read East Cabin November 1936 and Qila Sheikhupura Junction.
Most probably this railway junction was built in colonial time period 1936 and this building is reminder of that era which is gracefully holding all the memories.
I walked and walked.......
I stopped infront of main building of junction. Light yellow color fort like structure was standing infront of me. Many rooms and offices were locked and few people were sitting on benches made for passengers.
I entered through mattelic iron gate. Silence was my only companion. Ticket House was written in urdu Language. Instructions were mentioned on the wall written with black and blue paint.
I stepped in backyard. An old woman was standing there. She asked me to help her and i helped her to walk a little along with her because she couldn't walk with young mobility.
It was evidently written on that building Abandoned.
It's gate was locked. Seemingly, it's abandoned from many years. Desks and ground was invisible because cover of dirt was wrapped on everything.
A tuk tuk was standing there. It was looking vintage over there.
It was time to go back in car as my father was waiting in the car. I crossed barrier and went to stairs. It was bridge over the road and i went upstairs to capture some ariel view of railway track.
Maintenance vehicle was working on track. There were many workers who were sitting in this vehicle.
As there was no mirror so i can see all those people clearly. The time when i was capturing photos they looked at me and smiled.
I clicked one selfie- just to keep in the memories.
Well, i was surprised to see that there were almost no passenger. Everything was looking barren, old and abandoned.
Under the tree, there was a bench to sit. But, no one was there to sit and rest. I was going back towards car.
Railway track signals... I could not encode them. I am just aware of road traffic signals, when to stop, when to geared up and when to go. But, these signals were alien to me. Do you know about them?
See you next time 🌸🌼.

I didn't know that the colors had a particular meaning in the train carriages.
I am also not aware with different colors on the railway signaling board.
