Nagpur Chhattisgarh Railway (NCR) was a metre gauge line that existed in 1888 and was owned by the [[Great Indian Peninsula Railway]]. The Railway track, which extended from [[Nagpur]] to [[Rajnandgaon]] passed through [[Tumsar]], [[Gondia]] and [[Dongargarh]]. This railway was also known as [[Chhattisgarh State Railway]].
In 1888 this railway track was purchased from Great Indian Peninsula Railway by [[ Bengal-Nagpur Railway|Bengal Nagpur Railway]], a company incorporated in 1887, and was converted to broad gauge. Thus marked the beginning of BNR. The Nagpur Chhattisgarh Railway was thus merged into BNR.
