As a famine relief project, the Mysore Durbar opened the Mysore State Railway(MSR) first from Mysore to Bangalore in 1881, Bangalore to Gubbi in 1884 and Gubbi to Harihar in 1889 with headquarters at Mysore.

In 1887, in order to eradicate its "famine debt", the State of Mysore leased the MSR to the Southern Mahratta Railway (SMR) for a period of 45 years.

In 1907, the SMR merged with Madras Railway(MR) to become the Madras and Southern Mahratta Railway (M&SMR)
