Bareilly–Pilibheet Provincial State Railway was owned by the Provincial Government and worked by the Rohilkund and Kumaon Railway.

History[edit]

Two metre gauge sections were built to form the Bareilly–Pilibheet Provincial State Railway; Bhojeepura to Bareilly (12 miles) opened 1 October 1884, and Pilibheet to Bhojeepura (24 miles) opened 15 November 1884. It merged with the Lucknow–Sitapur–Seramow Provincial State Railway to become the Lucknow–Bareilly Railway on 1 January 1891.

Conversion to broad gauge[edit]

The railway lines were converted to 1,676 mm (5 ft 6 in) broad gauge in 2017.
