==== Indian Railways ====
In 1952, the EIR was split to form two zones of [[Indian Railways]]. The Moradabad, Lucknow & Ellahabad Allahabad Division was subsuned into [[Northern Railway]] while the remainder was merged with the [[Bengal-Nagpur Railway]] (BNR) to form [[Eastern Railway]]. This latter merger was not considered a success as, in 1955, BNR was demerged to form [[South Eastern Railway]].
