Reay Road railway station
Reay Road is a railway station on the Harbour Line of the Mumbai Suburban Railway. The station is a Grade-I heritage structure. The other 4 stations on Mumbai's heritage list include Byculla, Bandra, CST and Churchgate. Reay Road was named after Lord Reay, Governor of Bombay between 1885 and 1890. It was opened in 1910 and was originally used as a terminus for the Kurla-Reay Road harbour line. Commuters had to take a tram to continue the journey to Bombay (now Mumbai).
The letters GIPR can be seen on either side of the station. GIPR is the abbreviation for Great Indian Peninsula Railway, the first rail line in India.〔Daily News & Analysis (DNA) Mumbai, 27 September 2012, "12-car work won't hit Reay Road heritage Page 2〕
