In 1924, the '''Jodhpur State Railway''' (JSR) took over responsibility for working the [[Jodhpur]] section of the [[Jodhpur-Bikaner Railway]], including the British section of the [[Jodhpur-Hyderabad Railway]].
Writing critically in 1929 about third class travelling, Mahatma Ghandi condemned the latrines in JSR carriages as being "absolutely intolerable, insanitary and unfit for human use . . . The State railways should really be a model to the British system; whereas the actual state of things is the other wasy." (1)
At Independence in 1947, the British section of the [[Jodhpur-Hyderabd Hyderabad Railway]] became part of [[Pakistan Railways]].
