Jaipur State Railway
The Jaipur State Railway was constructed by the Jaipur Durbar.
It consisted of two branch lines -
- Jaipur-Sawai Madhopu Railway, opened in 1907
- Jaipur-Shaikhawati Railway, opened in 1916
Both branches were worked by Bombay, Baroda and Central India Railway(BB&CIR) until 1936 when the Jaipur Durbar took the Jaipur State Railway under its own management. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
