Goods transshipment and other pics

	Wankaner is an important station to transfer the table salt from MG lines to BG lines for the rest of the country.  Here is a view of the BG lines, the tank wagon is used to transport water to arid areas on the way while the white sacks of salt can be seen loaded in the box wagons. A few wated split sacks lie on the ground near the first two box wagons.
	Sarosh walks in between the ash mounds towards the loco shed.
	The ramp line next to the loco shed. This MG line is used to transfer MG wagons and locos to BG flat wagons when they are sent to Ahmedabad for periodic overhaul. Two of the locos to be scrapped are waiting on the line at the left.
	View of an MG covered wagon atop a BG flat. The sheet metal sides of the MG are totally corroded (from carrying salt ?)
