Bannu train station circa 1930.

Background: “The British Raj laid a narrow gauge (two feet, six inches) line from Mari Indus to Bannu passing through Kalabagh, Isakhel, Lakki Marwat and Bannu with a branch line to Tank. From Tank and Bannu, only military lines were allowed to take the cargo into forts in Waziristan. “

The last trains to use this line were in the 1990s before being decommissioned.
