This photograph captures the raw energy and determination of the workers engaged in the rock cutting process for Tunnel No. 15 on the Peninsula Railway in India, dated 1856. The image, titled "Rock cutting in progress, from face of Tunnel no 15," showcases the intricate and arduous task of carving out a path through the mountainous terrain to build the railway tunnel. Located at a distance of 7 1/4 miles, Tunnel No. 15 was a significant engineering feat during the construction of the Great Indian Peninsula Railway, which aimed to revolutionize transportation in the region. The railway line, which connected Bombay (Mumbai) with Thane, was a vital project that brought about a significant transformation to the transportation sector in India. The photograph features a group of laborers, dressed in traditional attire, working diligently to remove the rock from the tunnel's entrance. The men are using pickaxes and shovels to break the rock into smaller pieces, which are then loaded onto carts for removal. The scene is bustling with activity, with men working in various positions, some working in the tunnel, while others are loading the carts. The photograph also highlights the innovative use of technology during the construction process. A steam-powered drilling machine can be seen in the background, demonstrating the integration of modern technology with manual labor to expedite the construction process. The image also reveals the strategic use of supports, such as wooden beams and ropes, to ensure the safety of the workers and the stability of the tunnel's entrance. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the challenging and complex process of building a railway tunnel in the mid-19th century. It is a testament to the ingenuity, perseverance, and hard work of the laborers and engineers involved in the project, and their commitment to bringing about a revolutionary change to transportation in India.
