^{As-Salamu Alaykum (Peace Be Upon You)}

Today I will tell you about Parbatipur Loco Shed. Since it is located very close to my house, I often visit this place. Also, some of my friends work here, so I do not have much difficulty visiting this office. However, since it is an open place, it is very easy for any person to visit this place. However, to enter the inside of this office, you will definitely need the help of someone you know. It's a busy place. The locomotives are constantly visible in this area.

^{Main workplace}

Railway Loco Shed is an important establishment. This office is open 24 hours a day and the railway staff can always be seen working here. The reason why this office is open all day is that here it is always checked whether there is any problem with the engines that are important for operating the train, if there is a problem, it is resolved, the engines are run and tested and when necessary, the engines are sent to the station to operate the train.


^{A close look to the main workplace}

There are many railway lines here to run the engines, some of which have reached the railway station. The engine can go to the station through these lines. Again, for the purpose of checking the engine, the engine comes from the station to the loco shed through these lines.

There are some skilled staff here who work tirelessly to solve the problems inside the engine. There are many staff here without whose hard work it is impossible to run this loco shed. In the picture, you can see a part of the front of an engine being opened. This has been done to repair the engine. There are skilled mechanics here who can solve almost any problem of the entire engine.

Since trains run in our country all year round, such establishments are the most important and therefore they are always busy. Only on special days when the train is closed due to a holiday or there is any political problem or epidemic in the country, this office is closed. However, as soon as the situation becomes a little relaxed, this railway office is opened immediately.

There is a separate space next to this office to keep the crane. Some cranes are often seen here. Apart from this, there is a relief train arrangement in this office. When an engine or train accident occurs somewhere far from this office, mechanics from this office reach the accident site by relief train.

There is a beautiful Bougainvillea plant in the loco shed. Many people come here just to take pictures with these flowers. This plant can be seen in a flower show at different times of the year. This flower plant is one of the attractions of this loco shed.

The loco shed is an ideal place to see the busyness of the staff here, different types of railway engines, the departure of the engines according to the schedule and the repair work of the engines.
