The Brahmaputra-Sultanpur Railway was owned by a branch company but worked by the Eastern Bengal Railway(EBR). The line was metre gauge(MG).
On 1st April 1904, the State took over the enterprise, merging it into EBR.
It comprised two sections opened in 1899/1900
- Santahar to Bonarpara, 51 miles(81km)
- Phulchari Branch Railway from Bonarpara to Phulchari, 8 miles(14km)
These lines became the first part of the EBR's Santahar-Kaunia Loop Railway when the system was extended to Kaunia in 1905 [1]
