The '''Oudh and Rohilkhand Railway''' (ORR) took over the interests of the [[Indian Branch Railway]] and a Government of India (GoI) guarantee.
== Characteristics ==
The ORR established workshops at [[Alambagh]] (1865) and [[Charbagh]] (1867) to provide capacity for the major broad gauge line from [[Benares]] to [[Lucknow]] which it opened to traffic in 1872. On 31 December 1888, the GoI assumed both ownership and management of the ORR. In 1925, the ORR was merged into the [[East Indian Railway]].
== Records ==
Unfortunately, there are no ORR staff records held in the [[India Office Records]] at the [[British Library]].
