Dibrugarh is a railway junction station on the Lumding-Dibrugarh section. It is located in Dibrugarh district in the Indian state of Assam. It serves Dibrugarh and the surrounding areas. Dibrugarh Railway Station (DBRG) is the second railway station of the historic city of Dibrugarh after Dibrugarh Town Railway Station (DBRT). ==Overview== In her book ''Urban History of India: A Case Study'' Deepali Barua writes: "Dibrugarh was made the district headquarters in 1840. But it was not only for strategic importance that it soon became so important. The greatest interest of the British in Assam was the commerce centering round it. As early as 1823 the British discovered tea in the modern Sadiya region. It was at Chabua, 20 miles to the east of Dibrugarh that the British made their first experiments with tea cultivation with indigenous plants. Very soon oil and coal were discovered in areas near to Dibrugarh town. Oil was discovered at Digboi in 1882 and coal was found at Margherita in 1876. All these greatly enhanced the importance of Dibrugarh as a centre of industrial, commercial and administrative activities."〔Urban History of India: A Case-Study by Deepali Barua, pages 4, 79-80, ISBN 81-7099-538-8, Mittal Publications, A-110 Mohan Garden, New Delhi - 110059〕
