A bygone Era

Ever fancied taking a stroll down an English countryside.Well, not far from here on the way from the IIT campus to Kharagpur Railway Station,we pass through the Waynne Avenue ,First ,Second and the Third Avenues.Today, neither the streets are known by their fanciful colonial names nor is a speck of the Britishness to be seen around.As usual the streets have now taken the names of some obscure local personalities and the landscape remains distinctly rustic typical to a downtrodden communist town of West Bengal.Above and below are some of the picture from an era lost into the sands of time.
