Bhubaneswar Railway Station (BBS) servesBhubaneswar, the capital of the Indian state ofOdisha and it is the headquarters of theEast Coast Railway zone of theIndian Railways. It comes under (NSG2) railway stations category of India.
During the period 1893 to 1896, 800 miles ofEast Coast State Railway was built and opened to traffic. It necessitated construction of some of the largest bridges across rivers likeBrahmani,Kathajodi,Kuakhai andBirupa.[2]
Those daysCuttack was the capital of Orissa and Bhubaneswar was a village, a tehsil under Puri district. Since it was a tehsil a station was built.
