Secunderabad–Manmad is an important railway line connecting the states of Telangana and Maharashtra. It is administered by South Central Railway and was formerly known as Hyderabad–Manmad railway line (built by NGSR) and Godavari Valley railway for some period.[2][3] as of 2016, this line is single broad gauged, and electrification is under progress.[4] In March 2023, South Central Railway announced the electrification of an additional 75km on the line (Nizamabad-Kamareddy and Jankampet-Basar)[5]

The line starts at Secunderabad Junction and ends at Manmad Junction and has around 85 railway stations between them.[6] The major stations on the route are Secunderabad, Kamareddy, Nizamabad, Basar, Mudkhed, Nanded, Parbhani, Jalna, Purna, Aurangabad, Nagarsol and Manmad.

History

The Nizam of Hyderabad ruled over the Deccan region from the 18th century and under his reign, the railway line between Secunderabad and Manmad was constructed in 1905 by the Nizam's Guaranteed State Railway.[1] The Secunderabad-Mudkhed portion of the line was approved for doubling in 2023. [7]
