==Comment==
the '[[Goalundo-Narayanganj Extension Railway Survey]]' had been undertaken by the [[Eastern Bengal Railway]](EBR) during the period 1894-98. The record states “the object of connecting Calcutta with the Assam-Bengal Railway”. The line was not constructed and is a previous failure to provide a connection to East Bengal
 
A further survey was undertaken in 1906 to connect this proposed line to the [[Hajiganj-Shatnal Railway Survey|proposed '''Hajiganj-Shatnal Railway''' -'' see separate page'']]. This line also was not constructed.
 
Even today the railway stops at Goalundo Ghat Station, a short distance from the ferry terminal at Daulatdia crossing to Paturia on the opposite bank of the Ganges.
