In 1968, a full-fledged marshalling yard with hump facility was established and a wagon-repair depot was added later. The marshaling activities included segregation of wagons and long-distance marshaling orders. The activities continued until 1998. Bitragunta was also a known “Railway Cantonment”. Predominantly occupied by Anglo Indians, it had 1000 spacious railway quarters built in European style. It also hosted a Western Culture Institute (presently Bitragunta Railway Institute) that is standing till today as the legend of those glorious days. The evolution in the mode of traction power from steam to diesel and diesel to electric caused the reduction of shed-activities and finally the steam shed at Bitragunta was closed. The closure of the marshaling yard brought a complete closure to the glory of the railway town. Consequent upon the closure of the steam loco shed in Bitragunta, the infrastructure, other equipment and land have not yet been utilized for any purpose. But Bitragunta still continues as a changing point for all up & down freight trains.
