Fortunately, we have an old photograph of the Beypore Railway Station furnished by another reader, Calicocentric. As he explains, this photograph used to be on the British Library Museum site but has somehow disappeared from there. We thank Calicocentric and reproduce the photograph, acknowledging the copyright of the British Library Museum.
Premnath has furnished another priceless photograph of the stagecoach crossing the Dharmadom river with passengers. Here it is!

The Beypore railway station was actually at Chaliyam on the other bank of Chaliyar. Logan himself mentions about this erroneous usage. When the railway was extended to Calicut, they decided to build the bridge across Chaliyar at Feroke, probably because it is the narrowest point of Chaliyar near Beypore. The present day Kadalundi - Chaliyam road is on the track bed of the abandoned Kadalundi - Chaliyam railway line. The river (at Beypore) is still crossed in boats as described in 'The Asylum Press'.
