Haldibari–New Jalpaiguri line
The Haldibari–New Jalpaiguri line connecting Haldibari in Cooch Behar district and New Jalpaiguri in Jalpaiguri district in the Indian state of West Bengal, was since 1878 part of the Kolkata–Siliguri broad-gauge route. With the partition of India in 1947, while the main part of the route lay in Pakistan, later Bangladesh, the two ends of the route lying in India were detached. (For more details see Howrah–New Jalpaiguri line). However, the route continued to be operational till the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965. Thereafter, the route has been closed. The rest of the line has been in use in the respective countries.
==Gauge changes==
The Silguri–Haldibari line has gone through two successive gauge changes. As most other railway tracks in the area were metre gauge, the line was converted from broad gauge to metre gauge in 1949. Then in the nineteen sixties when broad gauge was introduced in the area in keeping with the policy of Project Unigauge of Indian Railways, the line was converted back to broad gauge and connected to the new station at New Jalpaiguri.〔(【引用サイトリンク】India: the complex history of the junctions at Siliguri and New Jalpaiguri )〕
