History

In between 1893 and 1896, the coastal railway track from Cuttack to Vijayawada was built and opened to traffic by East Coast State Railway.[3] The route was electrified in several phases. Khurda-Visakhapatnam section was completely electrified by 2002 and Howrah-Chennai route was fully electrified in 2005.[4]
