'''Bangalore Harihar Railway'''
As a famine relief project, the [[Princely states|Princely ]][[Mysore State]] 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.
