<br>The Champaner Manganese Mines were initially linked to the [[Bombay, Baroda and Central India Railway]](BB&CIR) station at Champaner Road by a 20 mile(32km) [[Ewing System Monorail|Ewing system monorail]]. This had 60 wagons designed to carry 6 tons that were hauled by buffalo. Marsland, Price & Co built the system. In 1909 it was stated that 'the said many claimed advantages of trhe system did not materialise' and it was decided as 'most unsatisfactory' <ref name =darvill/>.
