The token exchange
A dying form of train control, the token system. The once popular system started out in England and eventually found its way to many British colonies like India. The system is very labor intensive and is quickly being replaced by automatic signalling even in India. I spent a day photographing the token exchange at Nandol Dahegam in Gujrat with the assistance of the station staff, check the link below for a full report and further explanation on the inner workings of this signalling system.
