History

The Bengal Nagpur Railway was formed in 1887 for the purpose of upgrading the Nagpur Chhattisgarh Railway and then extending it via Bilaspur to Asansol, in order to develop a shorter Howrah-Mumbai route than the one via Allahabad.^[1]The Bengal Nagpur Railway main line from Nagpur to Asansol, on the Howrah-Delhi main line, was opened for goods traffic on 1 February 1891.^[2]

The Purulia-Ranchi line was opened as a narrow gauge railway of BNR in 1907.^[3]The Ranchi-Kotshila section was upgraded to broad gauge in 1960 and the Kotshila-Purulia section subsequently.^[2]

Electrification

The Purulia-Chakradharpur, Kandra-Gomharria, Sini- Adityapur, Adityapur-Tatanagar, Chakradharpur-Manoharpur and Manoharpur-Rourkela sections were electrified in 1961-62.^[4]
