History


India's first train travelled from Mumbai to Thane in April 1853. By May 1854, the Great Indian Peninsula Railway's Mumbai-Thane line was extended to the Kalyan Railway Station. Bhusawal Junction railway station was built in 1860, but it was not open for traffic until the mid-1860s. The line was lengthened to Khandwa in 1866 and to Nagpur in 1867.[3][4] Now, Manmad Junction Railway Station is connected to numerous Indian cities like Mumbai CST, Pune Jn, and Secunderabad Jn. Based on the number of bookings, the Manmad Railway Station is ranked between #1-100 out of all stations on the Indian Railway.[5]
As of 2018, Wi-Fi is available at this railway station.[citation needed][6]



Langar Seva


Manmad is a station where the Sachkhand Express stops, heading from Shri Amritsar Sahib to Sachkhand Shri Hazoor Sahib, Nanded. Sikh Pilgrims often travel on this train, and the local Sikh community from Manmad organize free food for the pilgrims every day. In the Sikh religion, a free food kitchen is known as a Langar.[citation needed]

Infrastructure



Central Engineering Workshop


The Central Engineering Workshop, located at Manmad, has two wings. The fabrication of girder bridges is carried out in the structural yard. Other manufacturing activities are carried out in the general yard and workshop.[7]



Developments


The railways in the Niphad-Manmad-Nandagaon sector were changed from locomotive to electric in a process that was accomplished between 1968 and 1969.[8] Manmad has an electric locomotive trip shed to supply and control the trains.[9]


The Central Railway has plans to double the line between Daund and Manmad.[10]
