Kichha-Kashipur Extension Survey
The Kichha-Kashipur Extension Survey was undertaken in the period 1894-98 and reported that “the survey was undertaken with a length of about 40 miles which may be desirable to build for the further development of the traffic of the Rohilkund and Kumaon Railway” [1]
The line was constructed by the ‘Rohilkund and Kumaon Railway’( R&KR) and opened in Dec 1907 as a metre gauge(MG) line [2] and became the ‘R&KR Kashipur Extension’, 36 miles(58km) from Laikua (not Kichha) to Kashipur where it connected to the ‘R&KR Ramnagar Extension’
