1 rupee for failing to be accurate in making 2 ends of the tunnel meet. He wae so ashamed he killed himself and is buried near the tunnel which is named after him "Barog"

Correct, Sir CC.

Elvis Trundle has given planning permission for the passing loop to be a mirror-image of Barog, with the refreshment room and stoeps hiding the steps up to the balcony and the tunnel being under the balcony.

Right next question

Why is the Warren Point and Stow Railway called that?

MDLR · Post by **MDLR** » Sat Jan 21, 2012 6:25 pm

The Name comes from the two main features of the garden, The rabbit hutch and the shed.
