The Sind Light Railway was a privately owned railway opened in 1909 linking Mirpurkhas to Jhudo.

The Sind Light Railway Company Ltd was founded in Bombay in 1908 by a Bombay businessman Sir Montague de Pomeroy Webb. [1]

Mirpurkhas became a railway junction in the early 20th century. Until 1909 there was only a metre gauge(MG) line running through the district, from Hyderabad to Marwar Junction. In 1909, the Sind Light Railway Co Ltd opened a line from Mirpurkhas to Jhudo.
