India's Largest Railway Complex: Howrah Junction | Mega Stations | FD Engineering

Calcutta is situated on the banks of the Ganges and was once the capital of the British Raj.

Today, it's the capital of West Bengal, one of India's most populous states and the epicenter of one of the fastest growing urban areas on the planet.

And it's Harrah Station, Calcutta's transport hub, that has to soak up the pressure.

And

while rush hours are the same the world over...

Powerers is just that bit spicier.

Facing the crowds today is Chief Ticket Inspector Pranab Bhattacharjee.

After 30 years on the job, he can spot a ticket cheat just by looking at them.

It is face, it is only face.

So I only look at the eyes of the passengers.

Every, every, every Kareena has the intention to look at the police.

So the passengers who looks at me, maybe we don't need passengers.

Out on track, Harrah's railway gangs are also up against it.

Hey, get him out.

Hey, get him out.

Hey, get him out.

Four and a half thousand workers look after Howrah's track, and in charge of the team today is Mr. S.K.

Sinha.

Heavy work pressure, workload.

No holiday, no rest.

Allotted is 24 hours into 365 days.

A mile down the line at the Tikia Parra coachyard, it's also nonstop.

Chief Yardmaster S.K. Mitra has to prep many of Howrah's 1,000 daily

trains.

But there's one service that has his attention more than most.
