Tiruvarur-Pattukottai meter gauge line will be closed down on October 19 for gauge conversion.
On Friday, the last rail vestiges of a by-gone era in these parts would be shut down to ring in a long-stretched works for the broad gauge line.
The closure of 76-km MG line would also signal the rolling back of the last of the meter-gauge lines under the Southern Railway and second last meter gauge line under the South Indian Railway divisions after the still functional 46-km Mettupalayam-Ooty line
