The Lalmonirhat-Gitaldaha (Geetaldaha) Railway was a MG line constructed by the Cooch Behar State Railway(CBSR) in the Indian State of West Bengal to connect to the Bengal Dooars Railway(BDR) at Lalmonirhat.

The line opened c.1900 and was worked by CBSR until c.1910 when East Bengal Railway(EBR) took over the working of CBSR.

With partition in 1947 the railway was severed with the closure of the Dadla River bridge and the lines terminated at Gitaldaha (also spelled Geetaldaha) in India and Mogalhat in Lalmonirhat District on the E.Pakistan/Bangladesh side. [1] [2]
