'''Lower Parel Railway Workshops'''. The workshop was originally a Locomotive repair workshop during the British period and opened between the year 1870-76. The workshop was set up by the former Bombay Baroda and Central India Railway (BB&CIR) as a centralised workshop for broad gauge([[Rail_gauge#Broad_Gauge|BG]]) locomotives,  carriages and wagon stock. Later, as the repair activities were expanded with progressive increases in the holding of locomotives, coaches and wagons, a separate wagon repair workshop was set up at Mahalaxmi in 1910 as an extension to this workshop under its administrative setup
