Part of one of the major trunk lines in the country, it passes through a forested plateau region interspersed with fertile valleys. HistoryThe first train in India travelled from Mumbai to Thane on 16 April 1853. By May, 1854, Great Indian Peninsula Railway's Bombay-Thane line was extended to Kalyan. Bhusawal station was set up in 1860 and in 1867 the GIPR branch line was extended to Nagpur.[1] The Nagpur Chhattisgarh Railway started construction of the {{convert|240|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} metre gauge (soon converted to broad gauge) Nagpur-Rajnandgaon section in 1878, after surveys were started in 1871. The Nagpur-Tumsar Road section was opened in April 1880 and the Tumsar Road-Rajnandgaon section in December 1880.[2] The Howrah–Allahabad–Mumbai line, a joint effort of Great Indian Peninsula Railway and East Indian Railway Company came up in 1870.[3] 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.[4] 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.[5] A narrow gauge branch line was constructed from Raipur to Dhamtari, and from Abhanpur another branch line goes to Rajim. It was opened in 1900.[6] The Gondia-Nagbhir-Nagpur line was opened for traffic in 1908. The Nagbhir-Rajoli line was opened in 1913 and extended up to Chanda. The Bhilai-Dalli Rajhara line mainly for iron ore transportation was opened in 1958. Bhilai Steel Plant was opened in 1959.[5] The Bengal Nagpur Railway was nationalized in 1944.[5]Eastern Railway was formed on 14 April 1952 with the portion of East Indian Railway Company east of Mughalsarai and the Bengal Nagpur Railway.[7] In 1955, South Eastern Railway was carved out of Eastern Railway. It comprised lines mostly operated by BNR earlier.[7][8] Amongst the new zones started in April 2003 were East Coast Railway and South East Central Railway. Both these railways were carved out of South Eastern Railway.[7] Gauge conversionWork for conversion to broad gauge of the {{convert|240|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} narrow gauge Gondia-Chanda Fort line started in December 1992, Gondia-Wadsa section was inaugurated on 25 September 1994. Wadsa-Nagbhir section was opened on 20 February 1997, Nagbhir-Chanda Fort section was opened on 13 January 1999 and the Chanda Fort-Ballarshah section was operated from 2 July 1999.[9] The Gondia-Balaghat broad gauge section was opened for traffic on 6 September 2005.[9] The Balaghat-Katangi section was converted to broad gauge in 2010.[10][9] The gauge conversions are under process for {{convert|147|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} long Nagpur-Chhindwara section, the {{convert|110|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} long Jabalpur-Nainpur section, the {{convert|180|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} long Chhindwara-Nainpur-Mandla section, the Nainpur-Balaghat section and {{convert|110|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} long Nagpur-Nagbhir section.[11][12] ElectrificationThe entire main line is electrified. The Bilaspur-Bhilai and Bhilai-Durg sections were electrified in 1970-71, Durg-Paniajob section in 1989-90. The Paniajob-Gondia and Gondia-Bhandara Road sections in 1990-91, Bhandara Road-Tharsa and Tharsa-Nagpur sections in 1991-92.[13] The Amla-Chhindwara section was electrified in 2017[14] and Balharshah-Chanda Fort-Gondia section was electrified in 2018. Other lines will be electrified once converted to broad gauge. Speed limitsThe entire Howrah-Nagpur-Mumbai line is classified as a "Group A" line which can take speeds up to 160 km/hr.[15] Passenger movementBialspur, Raipur, Durg and Nagpur on this line are amongst the top hundred booking stations of Indian Railway.[16]Narrow gauge rail museumA Narrow Gauge Rail Museum was inaugurated at Nagpur on 14 December 2002. It was accorded the status at par with National Rail Museum, New Delhi.[9] References1. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.irfca.org/faq/faq-hist.html | title = IR History: Early Days – I | last = Chronology of railways in India, Part 2 (1832 - 1865)| publisher = | accessdate = 2012-11-20 }} 2. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.secr.indianrailways.gov.in/uploads/files/1312278598168-Tourist%20Places.pdf | title = Nagpur Division| publisher = | accessdate = 2012-11-20 }} 3. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.irfca.org/faq/faq-history2.html | title = IR History: Early Days – II | last = |first = | work = Chronology of railways in India, Part 2 (1870 - 1899)| publisher = | accessdate = 2012-11-10 }} 4. ^{{cite web| url = http://railwaysofraj.blogspot.in/2011/08/number-1-down-mail.html |title = Number 1 Down Mail|last= |first= | publisher= Railways of the Raj| accessdate = 2012-11-10 }} 5. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.ser.indianrailways.gov.in/view_section.jsp?lang=0&id=0,1 |title=Major Events in the Formation of S.E.
