Khana Junction : ウィキペディア英語版 | Khana railway station
Khana Junction ((ベンガル語:খানা জংশন)) is a railway station in Bardhaman Sadar North subdivision of Bardhaman district in the Indian state of West Bengal. ==History== During the middle of the nineteenth century, M/s Carr, Tagore & Company transported coal from Narayankuri ghat on the Damodar River to Kolkata, then known as Calcutta. However, as the flow of water in the river was inconsistent, supplies were irregular. In order to capture the lucrative coal transport business, East Indian Railway, extended the railway track that had been laid between Kolkata and Hooghly to Raniganj in 1855. Construction of what was then considered to be the Howrah-Delhi main line was started in 1859, when the Khana junction-Rajmahal line was built. In 1866 Kolkata and Delhi were directly linked. With the completion of the long line connecting Raniganj with Kiul in 1871, a "shorter main line" was in position. Initially, it was called the chord line. However, as it attracted more traffic it was designated the main line and the original line, operating between Khana Junction and Kiul Junction, became the Sahibganj Loop.〔
