The Dhrangadhra Railway (DR) was a short metre gauge(MG) line owned by the Princely Dhrangadhra State.
Initially, the DR was worked by the Bhavnagar-Gondal-Junagad-Porbandar Railway; from 1911 by Bhavnagar State Railways. [1]
Later it was worked by Morvi Railway before becoming part of the newly formed Saurashtra Railway in 1948.
