'''Karachi Port Trust Railways'''


==Karachi Port==
[[Karachi]] by 1852, Karachi was an established city with a population of about 14,000 with a prosperous trade in over-seas markets. The Port started taking shape in 1854, when the dredging the main navigable channel and the construction of a mole or causeway joining the main harbor with the rest of the city were undertaken. From 1869 to 1974 the Manora Breakwater, Keamari Groyne, the Napier Mole Bridge, Native Jetty and the Chinna Creek were started which gave initial shape to the port. The construction of the wharves started in 1882, and by 1914 the East Wharves and the Napier Mole Boat Wharf had been completed. During the period between 1927 and 1944, the West Wharves of the Port, the lighterage berths and the ship-repairing berths were constructed.
