Mumbai Central Station
The front facade of the Bombay Central Railway Station is a heritage structure, and it depicts fire of victory. A Parsi architect designed this station to be protected by this fire at the entrance. To date, this major station has been an oasis of calm even during wars and riots and pandemics.
It was Shapoorji Pallonji who built this station. You can see the two fires on both sides of the entrance.
Wow Many Parsi have traveled from this station ( including me) but few must be knowing about the pillars with fire
Kudos to Late SP & Co
Better late than never now we r proud of
Is it not great!! Thank you Sapoorji.
Thank you for sharing, Yazdi and Sam. This was a major railway junction on the Western Railways branch of India’s railway network. It was close to Parsi areas of Grant Road, Tardeo, etc. and used to go to Udwada, Nargol, Surat, Baroda, Navsari, etc. along the west coast of India.
