The Amritsar–Pathankot line is a railway line connecting Amritsar and Pathankot Junction both in the Indian state of Punjab . The line is under the administrative jurisdiction of Northern Railway. ==History== The long wide broad gauge Amritsar–Pathankot line was opened in 1884.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Chapter VII )〕 It originally belonged to the local government and was transferred to North Western Railway in 1892.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Digital South Asia Library )〕 The Amritsar-Dera Baba Nanak branch line serves the western part of Batala tahsil. Prior to the partition of India in 1947, this line linked to Sialkot (now in Pakistan), but after partition Dera Baba Nanak became the terminus. The Batala-Qadian link serves the eastern part of Batala tahsil.〔 The Amritsar-Sialkot line ran thus: Amritsar-Dera Baba Nanak-Narowal-Sialkot. As of 2013, the Lahore-Narowal-Sialkot railway line passes near the India-Pakistan border through the western outskirts of Narowal, just opposite Dera Baba Nanak, before turning north-westwards to Pasrur and Sialkot. During the 2015 Gurdaspur attack, disaster was averted on this line as a railway lineman, Ashwani Saini, noticed a bomb on the track and alerted the authorities before the next train arrived. He also ran down the line waving a red flag to alert the driver of the next train to stop. The train that was due to traverse this track, with more than 270 people on board, stopped only a hundred yards from the bomb. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Amritsar–Pathankot line」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
