The '''Bhavnagar-Gondal-Junagad-Porbandar Railway''' (BGJPR) was a system comprising several small metre gauge lines on the [[Kathiawar]] peninsula (in western [[Gujarat]]), owned by the four Indian States that gave the system its name. This administrative coalition was dissolved in 1911 with the constituents going their independent ways .
 
These railways were to come together again, with others (eg the [[Morvi Railway]]), in 1948 to form the [[Saurashtra Railway]].
