Bangarapet railway station (station code: BWT) (earlier called Bowringpet) is located in Kolar district in the Indian state of Karnataka and serves Bangarapet.

History

Madras Railway connected Bangalore Cantonment to Jolarpettai as a branch on the newly constructed Chennai- Beypur line in 1864.The station was then known by the name as Kolar Road for its proximity to the Kolar Gold fields and later christened as Bowringpet the name of a District collector of Britishers of the area. Bangalore Mail started running around the same period the exact date not being very clear .[1]

The {{RailGauge|2ft6in}} wide narrow gauge line between Bowringpet (later Bangarapet) and Kolar was opened in 1913 by Mysore State Railway. The narrow gauge Yeshvantapur-Devanhalli-Chikballapur line was opened in 1915 and was linked to Bangalore via sidlaghatta,chintamani,srinivasapura under Bangarpet-Bangalore Narrow gauge line in 1918.[2] Gauge conversion of the Bangarpet-Kolar line was completed and opened for traffic in 1997 and since then it has been serviced by a railbus.[3] Gauge conversion of Yelankha-Chickballapur was completed and opened for traffic in 2004. Then Gauge conversion of Chickballapur-Kolar was completed and opened for traffic in November 2013 thus connecting the entire network into an Yelankha-Bangarpet Broad Gauge Line

The {{RailGauge|1676mm}} wide broad gauge Bangarpet-Marikuppam line came up in 1894.[4]
