The Wardha Valley Railway opened in 1877 as the Wardha-Warora State Railway and was worked by GIPR . The line linked Wardha to Warora, a distance of 45 miles(72km). [1]

The line was extended in 1905 by the Great Indian Peninsula Railway(GIPR) to reach the coal reserves at Ballapur. This extension is referred to as the Wardha Coal Railway[1].
