Historical plaques from the recently demolished Carnac bridge brought to CSMT’s Heritage Gully

Six 19th-century plaques of the demolished Carnac Bunder bridge arrived at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) Heritage Gully museum on Thursday. Central Railway Chief Public Relations Officer Shivaji Sutar said, “The bridge had basalt stones inscribed with the name of the bridge and year of construction on either end.”

He added, “Due to the inscriptions which date back to 1858, the year the construction of the bridge was presumably started, Central Railway has preserved these stones at the Heritage Gully at CSMT on P D’Mello Road.”
