'''Fairlawn School''', [[Mussoorie]]. This School was established as the '''Sind, Punjab and Delhi Railway School''' in August 1877 with about 27 pupils. Following extensions about 1880, 45 children (boys and girls) could be accommodated. Later (after January 1886) it was renamed the '''North Western Railway School'''. Following the death of the Headmaster in 1894, the School closed and the boys were transferred to the '''Oak Grove School''' (see below). It is not known (2009) where the girls went.
