Kanchrapara Workshop Gate railway station is arailway station on theSealdah Ranagahat line. Only during office peak hours trains halt here. This station has been mainly built for the workers of theKanchrapara Railway Workshop.

History

[edit]

The Sealdah–Kusthia line of theEastern Bengal Railway was opened to railway traffic in the year 1862.[1] Eastern Bengal Railway used to work only on the eastern side of theHooghly River.[2]

The Kanchrapara Railway Workshop was established in the year 1863. It used to serve the Defence Department of the British Army for repairing aircraft and manufacturingarmoured cars andgrenades during World War II. The second five-year plan brought about drastic changes indiesel and electric traction.Electrification on the railway system in the eastern region required major repair and overhaul facilities for Electric Locos,EMU rolling stock since the early 1960s.Kanchrapara was selected to play the key role in all these spheres. In 1962 a decision was taken for remodelling Kanchrapara Workshop in order to make it a base workshop for electric locos, EMU rolling stock of Eastern and South Eastern Railways.

Station complex

[edit]
