Changes

The Gaekwars of [[Baroda]] were responsible for building several metre and narrow gauge lines in and around Baroda and the eastern [[Gujerat]]. Several of these lines were merged to form the '''Gaekwar's Baroda State Railway''' (GBSR). The origin was the '''[[Gaekwar's Dabhoi Railway]]''', the name of the ox-driven line between [[Dabhoi]] and Miyagam Karjan, a distance of 20 miles(33km) and opened in 1862.  The line was a 2ft 6in/762mm narrow gauge([[Rail_gauge#Narrow_Gauge|NG]]) with rails weighing 13 lbs to a yard and a pair of oxen used to haul trains composed of 4-6 vehicles. In 1863, steam locomotives proved to be too heavy for the rails. During the reign of Malharrao in 1871, the old rails were removed and new rail 30 lbs to a yard were laid.  The Miyagam-Dabhoi line was reopened for traffic on 8.4.1873 and renamed the '''Gaekwar's Baroda Railway'''.  Additional lines were constructed up to 1929, creating a complex network.
