Changes

The first track was laid along the east bank of the Ganga to Kushthia and then across the river to Dhaka. The line to Kushthia was opened in 1862, ending in Calcutta at Sealdah. The EBR became the '''Eastern Bemgal Bengal State Railway''', owned and managed by the Government of India, on 30 June 1884. In 1904, the EBSR took over the [[Bengal Central Railway]].
