History

The broad-gauge Manmad–Daund line was opened in 1878 and connects the two main sections (south-east and north-east) of Great Indian Peninsula Railway. The line is being doubled.[1][2]

With a deadline of 2019, the Indian Railways has initiated work on the railway line between Parli and Beed, which is part of the long-pending Parli–Beed–Ahmednagar project. Work on the multicrore project has begun from either ends of the proposed 261 km track. The route has a financial outlay of Rs 2,272 crore. The centre and state government have agreed to bear 50% of the cost each. The work is still going on at a very slow pace.[3][4]

Unfortunately the direct route between following places has not been started.

  • Ahmednagar–Pune
  • Ahmednagar–Nashik
  • Ahmednagar–Aurangabad
  • Ahmednagar–Kalyan
