Siliguri Town railway station
Siliguri Town is one of the three railway stations that serve Siliguri in Darjeeling district in the Indian state of West Bengal. The other two stations are: Siliguri Junction and New Jalpaiguri.
==History==
In 1878, the railway line from Calcutta (later called Sealdah) station to Siliguri was in two stages – broad gauge from Calcutta to Damookeah Ghat, on the southern bank of the Padma, across the river in a ferry and then to Siliguri. In 1881, the narrow gauge line from Siliguri to Darjeeling was added. In 1926, with the Hardinge Bridge in position, the entire Calcutta-Siliguri line was converted to broad gauge and in 1947, following the partition of India the line was severed, as a major portion of the line ran through East Pakistan.
In the post-partition era, with makeshift arrangements via Barsoi and Kishanganj being metre gauge and narrow gauge, the focus shifted in 1949 to a new Siliguri Junction railway station and later still, in 1961 to the new broad gauge station at New Jalpaiguri.〔
