Maitree Express
The Maitree Express or ''Moitri Express'' ((ベンガル語:মৈত্রী এক্সপ্রেস) ''Moitri Ekspres'', (ヒンディー語:मैत्री एक्सप्रेस)) or Dhaka-Kolkata Express is an International passenger train serving the railway connecting the Bangladeshi capital of Dhaka and the Indian state West Bengal's capital Kolkata. This is the only railway link between the cities of the two nations and has been revived after being closed for 43 years. The name ''Maitree Express'' means the ''Friendship Express'', denoting the significance of the train service to the foreign relations between India and Bangladesh. The inauguration of the train service was held on the occasion of the Bengali New Year (পহেলা বৈশাখ ''Pôhela Boishakh'') April 14, 2008.
==Background==

The Partition of India in 1947 disrupted rail links in the province of Bengal, which was divided into the Indian state of West Bengal (পশ্চিমবঙ্গ) and the Pakistani province of East Bengal (later renamed East Pakistan in 1956). During British rule over the undivided land, regular over-night trains connected Kolkata, Goalanda, Dhaka and Narayanganj. In addition pre-partition, ''Darjeeling Mail'' connecting Kolkata (''Sealdah Station'') with Siliguri ran through what became East Pakistan via Gede-Darshana and Chilahati-Haldibari. Three train services from Sealdah—''East Bengal Mail'' to Parbatipur Junction via Gede-Darshana, ''East Bengal Express'' to Goalundo Ghat via Gede-Darshana, and the ''Barisal Express'' to Khulna via Benapole-Petrapole—continued operation between the two countries until 1965, when the outbreak of the Indo-Pakistani Conflict of 1965 led to the closure of all passenger train links.〔 The Bangladesh war of Independence 1971 resulted in the independence of East Pakistan as the nation-state of Bangladesh. The ''Maitree Express'' follows the same route as the first two trains above via Gede-Darshana.
