EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1856, showcases a scenic view of Shebee Hill in India, with a cart-road winding along the railway. The hill is located in the Western Ghats, a mountain range in the Indian Peninsula, and is situated between the towns of Bhore and Concan. In the foreground, we see a cart-track that runs parallel to the railway, providing an alternate mode of transportation for locals and travelers. At the foot of the hill lies the quaint town of Concan, nestled among lush greenery and surrounded by the Sahyadri Mountains. The railway line, a marvel of engineering at the time, can be seen snaking its way through the landscape, connecting various parts of the region. In the distance, the silhouette of Matheran Hill rises majestically, adding to the breathtaking beauty of the scene. The construction of the railway had a significant impact on the transportation infrastructure of the region, making it easier for people to travel and connect with one another. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, captures a moment in time when the old world of carts and trains coexisted, offering a glimpse into the rich history of transportation in India during the 19th century. The image features prominent figures of the time such as Alice Tredwell, George Clowes, and Henry Swainston, who were instrumental in the construction of the Great Indian Peninsula Railway. However, this photograph is not about their commercial endeavors but rather the stunning landscape and the intersection of tradition and innovation in transportation.
