How to interpret this infobox

The Jind-Panipat Railway (JPR) was a short broad gauge(BG) line owned by the Jind Durbar which connected Jind, a station on the Southern Punjab Railway line from Delhi to Bhatinda, with Panipat, a station on the East Indian Railway route from Delhi north to Amballa and Kalka.

The JPR opened in 1916 as part of the Delhi-Umballa-Kalka Railway and originally worked by the East Indian Railway(EIR) and was still so in 1918. [1]

There is a report (unconfirmed) that the line was later apparently worked by the North Western Railway.
