History

The Jalandhar–Firozpur line was laid in 1912.[1] The last official steam service on the line completed its journey on 6 December 1995.[2]

Border crossings

Fazilka and Hussainiwala on this line are two defunct railway border crossing points on the India–Pakistan border. Before partition of India in 1947, there were 711 kilometers (442 miles) long Delhi-Samma Satta & 445 kilometers (277 miles) long Delhi-Raiwind railway lines, which were operational. After partition of India, a 20 kilometers (12 miles) line linked Amruka on the Pakistan side of the India–Pakistan border, opposite Fazilka, towards Samma Satta. The only train running through these tracks was withdrawn after 1965 war.[3] 275 kilometers (171 miles) long Amruka-Samma Satta line & 28 kilometres (17 miles) long Kasur-Raiwind lines are operational in Pakistan now. The Hussainiwala–Ganda Singh Wala railway crossing, near Firozpur, became defunct with the partition of India. The 16 kilometers (9.9 miles) broad gauge line from Kasur Junction in Pakistan has been closed. A strategically important 1,681 metres (5,515 feet) Kaiser-E-Hind Rail cum Road Bridge was blown up during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971 at Hussainiwala, and was never rebuilt. In 2013, Sutlej Barrage Bridge on Hussainiwala was opened after restructuring.[3]

Passenger movement

Jalandhar City is the only station on this line that is amongst the top hundred booking stations of Indian Railway.[4]

Rail Coach Factory

Rail Coach Factory, Kapurthala started production in 1988. It is the largest and most modern coach manufacturing unit of Indian Railways, producing around 1,600 coaches annually.[5]
