*[[Frederick Smith Stanton]] with the famine in [[Behar]] and [[Tirhoot]] of 1873-74 he was sent on emergency duty to construct a short line of 63 miles from the River Ganges to [[Durbhunga]] in [[Tirhoot]], which he opened for traffic in fifty-three days. The construction of this temporary line, which was carried out at the rate of a mile a day, was, in the words of Sir Richard Temple, then Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, "an extraordinary achievement in respect of speed. To carry the line over a country intersected by three considerable streams; to make it strong enough to carry 2,000 tons in a day; to open it within the prescribed time, demanded primarily an indefatigable energy, but also professional skill and administrative ability. All these qualities were displayed by Major F. S. Stanton, R.E., the Engineer-in-Chief. Having made this line, he worked its heavy traffic with the same efficiency." <ref>[http://www.gracesguide.co.uk/Frederick_Smith_Stanton "Grace's Guide - Frederick Smith Stanton”]; Retrieved on 21 Apr 2016</ref>. *[[Vans Righy]] was deployed from the [[Public Works Department]] from 1875 to 1880 as Executive Engineer on the Tirhoot State Railway.
