- User Conditions:
- Administrative Context:
- One of the original guaranteed companies and the earliest line undertaken in India. Formed in 1849 and incorporated by Act of Parliament the same year. Purchased by Government in 1900 but leased back to private management. Under Government management from Jul 1925. The first section from Bombay to Thana was opened to traffic in 1853. Subsequent extensions across the Western Ghats via Nasik District and East Khandesh to Jubbulpore and Nagpur, and south east via Poona to Raichur in Hyderabad State. In 1900 was amalgamated with the Indian Midland Railway (see L/AG/46/14) whose area of operations extended from Itarsi in Central India to Agra and Cawnpore, with branches to Manikpur, Katni, Ujjain and Baran. The G.I.P.R. also took over the management of the Agra-Delhi chord railway (opened in 1905), thus obtaining direct access to the granaries of the Punjab and Northern India.
