The line was worked as part of the [[Bhavnagar-Gondal-Junagad-Porbandar Railway]] system until 1911. Later, when the line was extended westwards to [[Dwarka]] and [[Port Okha]] on the [[Gulf of Cutch]], the system was renamed the '''Jamnagar and Dwarka Railway'''(J&DR).
The [[Okhamandal State Railway]] section [[Kuranga-Okha Railway]] was opened, 1921 and worked by J&DR in 1922
