'''Allahabad''' became the capital of the newly formed [[United Provinces]] after the [[Indian Mutiny]] of 1857-58. The High Court of Judicature for the [[North-Western Provinces ]] was located in Allahabad.
The city was an important junction on the main line of the [[East Indian Railway]] from [[Calcutta]] to [[Delhi]]; from here, a branch ran south-west to [[Jubbulpore]] to connect to the [[Great Indian Peninsula Railway]]'s main line from [[Bombay]]. The [[Oudh and Rohilkhand Railway]] had a terminus at Allahabad.
