Mogalhat ({{lang-bn|মোগলহাট}}) is a border railway station in Bangladesh, situated in Lalmonirhat District, in Rangpur Division. It is a defunct railway transit point on the Bangladesh-India border.

History

By the turn of the nineteenth century Lalmonirhat railway station had emerged as an important railway centre. Bengal Dooars Railway constructed a line to Malbazar. Cooch Behar State Railway constructed the Geetaldaha-Jayanti narrow gauge line. Links were established with Assam, with the Golokganj-Amingaon line coming up. In pre-independence days, a metre gauge line running via Radhikapur, Biral, Parbatipur, Tista, Gitaldaha and Golokganj connected Fakiragaram in Assam with Katihar in Bihar.[1][2][3][4]

The Mogalhat-Geetaldaha link was there in 1955, when Pakistan and India signed an agreement regarding resumption of rail traffic.[5] Subsequently, a part of the bridge across the Dharla River {{Coord|26.00304|N|89.46934|E|format=dms}} was washed away transforming Mogalhat-Geetaldaha, a defunct railway transit point.
