This was Gondal state railway started by king of Gondal
In Saurashtra, Bhavnagar was the first and Gondal the second state to build a railway network.
2. MG era began in December 1880 with inauguration of the line from Bhavnagar Terminus (BVC) to Wadhwan (WC).Sir James Fergusson, Governor of Bombay inaugurated the line in the presence of Sir Takhtasinhji the ruler of Bhavnagar. The first train was run from Bhavnagar to Limdi carrying the Governor's entourage and guests. It returned the same evening- well in time for a State Bouquet in the King's palace at Neelambaug.
3. Soon after the line from Bhavnagar to Wadhwan was complete, the Dhola to Dhoraji line was also completed. Bhavnagar and Gondal states contributed in 2:1 ratio for construction of the lines with contribution of Rs.86 lakhs by Bhavnagar State and Rs.29 lakhs by Gondal State

Where was this railway? Please provide more details

I feel Nagpur comes nearest to this one. The Station building looks the same.

Thanks. Brings nostalgia for me too. I transited via Bikaner on the way from Ahmedabad to Suratgarh in 1980, but only had about 90 minutes (and no camera) between my two trains to take in the beauty of this station.

Simply superb pic!

The Black & White pic brings back nostalgic memories of my previous visit to Bikaner, 29 years ago. Thanks for sharing.
