The condemned coaches at the railway workshop here have been turned into a centre of learning. The coaches aptly named as ‘Nali Kali’ (Joyful learning) were inaugurated at the Railway Colony’s Primary School in Ashokapuram.
It is an innovative method of utilising two old condemned coaches, by duly refurbishing the interiors with fans and lights by providing safe and secure and different learning environment.
In one coach, two class rooms for fourth and fifth grades with teaching aids have been provided. Another coach provides a spacious meeting/activity hall to the children. The exteriors of the coaches are tastefully painted with emphasise on green environment, educative themes like water cycle. Two separate bio-toilets for the use of children have also been provided.
