 MOST HAUNTED RAILWAY STATIONS OF INDIA

The haunted train stations in India are a topic of an interesting conversation nowadays. Considering Indian train stations are nearly 200 years old. Here is a list of railway stations that you should better stay away from, unless you are outrageously adventurous. Because they are haunted!

1. Begunkodor Train Station, West Bengal

Located in a remote village in West Bengal, this station is reportedly haunted by a white-sari draped spectral, the ghost of a lady who was run over by a train there. She has been seen dancing on the platforms and wandering along the tracks, and the sight has allegedly caused the death of a railway employee. However, these reports were rubbished by the government and the station was reopened in 2009 after being deserted for 42 years.

2. Rabindra Sarobar Metro Station, Kolkata

Also known as the Paradise of Suicide, this metro station has witnessed 70 per cent of all the suicides that take place on metro tracks. Eerie figures appear and vanish in a fraction of a second.

3. Barog Station, Shimla

The Barog tunnel/tunnel no 33/tunnel 103 is the longest tunnel on the Kalka Shimla Railway route. It takes about 2.5 minutes to cross this tunnel. Colonel Barog, a British railway engineer who was originally assigned to construct the tunnel, felt humiliated and depressed when a miscalculation about the engineering led to him being fined by the government and reprimanded in front of his workers. He ended up shooting himself while taking a walk. Though he was buried outside the then incomplete tunnel, one wonders if his spirit ever left the tunnel. It is believed that he still lingers in and around the eerie and damp tunnel making his presence felt.

Before 1947, which were two big railway stations in India?

 The two big railway stations in India before 1947 were the most significant, oldest and the largest railway stations in India which were constructed before independence around 170 years ago.

Howrah Junction in Kolkata and Victoria Terminus in Mumbai were the two biggest railway stations in India before 1947.

Victoria Terminus in Mumbai: The original station Bori Bunder was established in 1853 where the first passenger train in India ran to Thane. The current building was completed in 1888 and was renamed as Victoria Terminus.

During British rule Victoria Terminus had served as the headquarters of the Great Indian Peninsular Railway (GIPR) which was the main gateway for the international trade in Western India. It was one of the busiest railway stations of that time.

Victoria Terminus was built in combination of Victorian Gothic Revival Architecture and Traditional Indian Architecture. British architect S. W. Stevens designed it and now it's a UNESCO World Heritage site. The terminal was built over 10 years which began in 1878 and got completed in 1888. The remarkable stone dome, turrets, pointed arches and eccentric ground plan are similar to Indian traditional palace architecture. Today it's known as Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT).

Howrah Junction in Kolkata was opened on 15th August, 1854 and this is referred as one of the oldest railway stations in India.

This was one of the largest and busiest railway stations that linked Kolkata to other major parts of India. By 1900 with the extension of the Bengal Nagpur railway it had become a joint station and was connecting to Bombay and Madras. It is a beautiful large building having red brick structure.
