💨 Abstract

The Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) and IIT Guwahati have collaborated to create a specialized paint system that prevents moss scaling on railway bridges, addressing a long-standing maintenance challenge in the humid northeastern region. The innovative paint, featuring advanced chemical formulations, is expected to enhance durability, lower maintenance costs, and extend the lifespan of bridges, contributing to safer and more sustainable railway operations.
