Sutlej River Training Works Railway
The Nalagarh Quarry was used again to provide materials to the ‘Sutlej River Training Works’ at Rupar from Dec 1915 to May 1916. A 2ft/610mm narrow gauge(NG) was laid from the headworks, along the riverbank 14 miles(22km) to the Nalagarh Quarries. The record shows that 30hp locomotives with trucks were used [1].
