The '''Jagannathganj Ghat Branch Railway''' was a metre gauge([[Rail_gauge_#Metre_Gauge|MG]])branch from the Dacca Section of the [[Eastern Bengal Railway]](EBR) (Narayanganj to Bahadurabad Ghat section). The date of opening is not clear but thought to be soon after the opening in 1887 of the EBR Dacca Section (formerly [[Dacca State Railway]])
The branch line connected the EBR main line to the ferry terminal at [[Jagannathganj Ghat]] on the east bank of the Brahmaputra (Jamuna) River. The ferry was an integrated part of the railway system and connected to [[Sirajganj Ghat]] on the west bank.
