station to see the old type buildings there. But I was pleasantly surprised to see the restoration work going on there.

There was news about the plans for restoration, but seeing the actual work was surprising.

There I saw the work is going on in full swing. Statues of Swami and his Granny has been created and Mr. Shankar Nag's too would be created.
-
The place will also have an Art Center for children.

Various things belonging to that time would also be kept and the place would have the early 1900s look as in the story.

Interesting info in today's 'The Hindu' paper. This little station in Malnad region is the one featured in the popular 80's serial "Malgudi Days" directed by Shankar Nag based on R.K.Narayan's stories.
