Chiraidongri railway station is a small railway station in Mandla district, Madhya Pradesh. Its code is CID. It serves Chiraidongri village. The station consists of two platforms. The platforms are not well sheltered. It lacks many facilities including water and sanitation.[1] Chiraidongri was served by a narrow-gauge railway from Mandla Fort to Nainpur. Currently the section between Nainpur and Chiraidongri is operational (19 km), remaining closed for gauge conversion the section Chiraidongri – Mandla Fort (24 km). From Nainpur Junction, the line connects to the partially converted Jabalpur–Gondia railway line, from narrow gauge to broad gauge.
