The oldest railway station at Dhaka
Wonderful rail station.
The only rail station in Our Old Dhaka. Actually its a sub rail station. Narayanganj to Kamolapur is only rout.
One of the most important rail station to Travel from Dhaka to Narayanganj.
It is a station of british period
truth is this place doesn't seem to be a rail station at all. it's rather crowded with a bunch of beggars. If you don't believe a word about it then check out the place! beggars have managed to make their home along the rail track near the station. Besides it, when the train comes people jostle to get on the train. and the situation looks like a fiasco!!!
Very old rail station. Outlook needs to be improved. People willing to go Narayanganj can use this station.Too much crowded place.. Train service isn't good enough.A busy and crowded Rail Station like other normal Railway Station. You can visit local and remote places from here. Also have nearby food store, rest room and other useful things that can be needed when you visit.This is not a very Good place to walk around, As it is a nasty, crowded and noisy place. You can take train to go to Narayanganj ( ticket price is 10 BDT for normal trains and 15 BDT for commuter train) and kamalapur. Trains are available in every one hour later, commuter trains are better option for a fresh journey.

Till June 2, 1982, the management and development of railway was vested with a Railway Board, comprising of a Chairman and four members. But, for administrative convenience and operational reason the Railway Board was abolished with effect from June 3, 1982 and the function of the Railway Board was vested with the Railway Division of the Ministry of Communications with the Secretary of the Division working as the Director General of Bangladesh Railway. For the same purpose the Railway bifurcated into two zones, East & West, under the administrative control of two general managers, who are accountable to the Director General of Bangladesh Railway. Subsequently on August 12, 1995 the day to day operation of the Railway was separated from the Ministry and entrusted with director general drawn from the Railway professionals. For policy guidance, a 9(nine) member Bangladesh Railway
authority (BRA) was formed with the Minster Ministory of Communications as its Chairman. The Director General is assisted by Additional Director General and Joint Director General to perform all administrative and policy making jobs.
The General Managers of the two zones are assisted by various specialized departments who are responsible for operation, maintenance and financial
management. Each zone is again divided in two divisions, which are the basic unit of operation. The division is headed by a Divisional Railway Manager, who is assisted by Divisional Officers of various specialized Departments such as Personnel,Transportation, Commercial,Finance Mechanical, Way and Works Signaling & Telecommunication, Electrical, Medical, Nirapatta Bahini etc. Besides there are two workshop Divisions, one in each zone, located at Pahartoli and Syedpur, each being headed by a Divisional Superintendent .Further there is a locomotive workshop headed by Chief Executive at Parbatipur for general overhauling of both BG&MG locomotives.
