An interesting fact about the 110-year-old steam engine is that, it was in regular use, as early as 1990 and is still in running condition.
This engine is now on exhibit at Golra Station i.e. Pakistan Railway Heritage Museum.
This piano is still in working condition. I personally played it myself.
100-year-old hand crane, where a sign also claimed that it was tested for lifting 508kg weight in 1984. Hand crane is on exhibit at golra station Islamabad, Pakistan.
Old signboard of early 20th century:It advertises making of hot tea in 5 different written scripts; English, Devnagri, Urdu, Gormukhi and Bengali.
