Indian Railway Locos and Coaches Dataset

A curated dataset of images focused on Indian Railway locomotives and coaches, intended for fine-tuning or LoRA adaptation of image generation models like SDXL.

📁 Dataset Structure

The dataset includes high-resolution images of:

• Indian locomotives (WAP, WAG, WDP, WDM series)
• Passenger coaches (LHB, ICF types)
• Interiors and exteriors of coaches
• Platform and yard scenes

File type: .jpg or .png
Resolution: Varies (recommended: ≥ 512x512)
Captions: Embedded or stored in a JSON/meta file

🧾 Annotations

Captions were:

• Written manually or cleaned with semi-automated tools.
• Formatted for compatibility with Kohya trainer and similar tools.

🧠 Intended Use

• Fine-tuning SDXL or other diffusion models for generating Indian Railway-themed images
• Training LoRA modules for railfanning, simulation, or animation purposes
• Research or educational exploration in regional fine-tuning

📌 Licensing

All images are curated for non-commercial, educational, or research purposes.
