History

In 1913, the Hooghly–Katwa Railway constructed a 1,676 mm (5 ft 6 in) wide broad gauge line from Bandel to Katwa, and the Barharwa–Azimganj–Katwa Railway constructed the 1,676 mm (5 ft 6 in) wide broad gauge Barharwa-Azimganj-Katwa Loop Line.[2][3] With the construction of the Farakka Barrage and opening of the railway bridge in 1971, the railway communication picture of this line were completely changed. Total 13 local trains stop at Niyalish Para railway station.[4] The rail distance between Niyalish Para and Howrah is approximately 216 km.[5]
