Dalsinghsarai

There is a myth about Dalsinghsarai railway station, that it is the 2nd oldest railway station in India and 1st railway station in Bihar but "Royapuram" (Tamilnadu) is the second oldest railway station(operational) of India. If we see history we would find Maharaja of Darbhanga feels the need of a railway line in Mithila, so on his own money they built (probably first in Bihar) a railway line from Darbhanga to Simaria which passes through Dalsinghsarai. Dalsinghsarai and its localities are known for its "fresh vegetables" and "tobacco" (that's why in past Britishers established a Cigratte factory in the area) which transported through railways to the rest of the country. This is the main railway station between Barauni junction and Samastipur junction with many modern facilities. Many major trains like Garib rath superfast express, Vaishali Super fast express, Avadh Assam Express, Bagh Express etc. stop here. It is well connected with other parts of country via railway. It lies under the Sonpur Division of the East Central Railway. Railway will build a new Dalsinghsarai-Vidyapathidham Bypass Railway line of 10 km in upcoming years.In 2023 Indian Railway choose Dalsinghsarai in "Amrit Bharat Railway scheme" for Redevelopment of the station in phased manner and also issues money in the budget of 2023.But the most demanding and awaited project in the city is 32 no. Flyover which is neglected this time also, only 1000 rupees in 2023 budget for the project,in past Mr. Nitin Gadkari twitted for the construction in recent year, we are in 2023 but no progress could be seen there. There are 17 Express trains and 4 Local trains stop at Dalsinghsarai railway station.

Dalsinghsarai is well connected by roads . This city is situated NH 122. NH-122 was previously numbered NH-28 [5].This NH is very important due to Barauni Refinery.Three new flyover is proposed in Dalsinghsarai, first at NH-122 at tri-junction of SH-88, NH-122 and Vidyapatidham-Dalsinghsarai Road, Second at 32 number railway crossing and third at under construction Bypass for SH-88 to bypass dalsinghsarai market.It is also connected to SH-88 which connects it from Rosera and many more places.A new four lane greenfield highway is proposed between Dalsinghsarai and Purnia via Simri Bhaktiyarpur(Saharsa) which minimise the travel distance and provide hassle free travel to East India.Under construction World's longest Kacchi Dargha-Bidupur bridge which is a part of "Amas-Darbhanga expressway" will be nearly 25 km from the town that provide North Bihar people's a new way to reach Patna and South Bihar.Tajpur-Bhaktiyarpur Four lane Bridge's work also resumed in 2023 which work as a new path to Rajgir,Nalanda in less hours.Rajendra setu(Simaria) and New Mokama-Simaria Bridge which connects north Bihar to South Bihar,West Bengal,Jharkhand etc is approx. 35 km
