The line begins from Kotri Junction and ends at Attock City Junction. The total length of this railway line is {{convert|1519|km|mi|sp=us}}. There are 73 railway stations from Kotri Junction to Attock City Junction on this line.[3][4] History{{main|History of rail transport in Pakistan}}The present-day Kotri–Attock Railway Line was built as a patchwork of different railways during the 19th and 20th centuries by North Western State Railway and Pakistan Railways. The present day line consists of the following historic lines:
The Mari–Attock Railway opened in 1891 as a {{RailGauge|1676mm|lk=on}} broad gauge railway line between Mari Indus and Attock. In 1895 it was extended to Mianwali.[5]
The Jacobabad–Kashmore Railway (also known as the Upper Sind Light Railway) opened in 1914 as a {{RailGauge|762mm|lk=on}} narrow gauge railway line between Jacobabad and Kashmore.[6][7]
The Larkana–Jacobabad Light Railway (also known as the Sind Light Railway) opened in 1924 as a {{RailGauge|762mm|lk=on}} narrow gauge railway line between Larkana and Jacobabad.[8] In 1956, Pakistan Western Railway converted the all 3 sections from {{RailGauge|762mm|lk=on}} narrow gauge to {{RailGauge|1676mm|lk=on}} broad gauge. Between 1969 and 1973, Pakistan Western Railways completed the gap section between Kashmore–Mari Indus and the line was also extended from Larkana to Kotri, thus linking Kotri to Attock. In 2010, this line was designated Main Line 2 by Pakistan Railways to provide an alternative North–South route to the heavily used Karachi–Peshawar Railway Line. StationsThe stations on this line are as follows: {{columns-list|colwidth=22em|
