The Sind Light Railway was a privately owned railway opened in 1909 linking Mirpurkhas to Jhudo.

Mirpurkhas became a railway junction in the early 20th century. Until 1909 there was only a metre gauge(MG) line running through the district, from Hyderabad to Marwar Junction. In 1909, the Sind Light Railway Co Ltd opened a line from Mirpurkhas to Jhudo.
