The '''Jammu–Baramulla line'''<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.railway-technology.com/projects/kashmir-railway/|title=Jammu-Baramulla line|work=Railway Technology}}</ref> (including the '''Udhampur–Srinagar–Baramula Rail Link (USBRL)''' subsection) is a 324&nbsp;km long [[Track (rail transport)|railway track]] between the cities of [[Jammu]] and [[Baramulla]] in [[Jammu and Kashmir (union territory)|Jammu and Kashmir]] India. It is fully operational as of June 7, 2025. Connecting the [[Kashmir Valley]] with the rest of India, this rail link has major [[Future_of_rail_transport_in_India#Geo|geostrategic importance]] for the [[Indian Armed Forces|Indian armed forces]]. It has reduced the travel time between Jammu and [[Srinagar]] by 4 hours from 7 hours to 3 hours,<ref name=printstat1/> and it also connects the important religious pilgrimage sites of [[Vaishno Devi|Mata Vaishno Devi Temple]] and [[Amarnath Temple]].<ref name=amar1>{{Cite web |last=Excelsior |first=Daily |date=2025-06-01 |title=PM set to flag off train to Kashmir on June 6, address rally at Katra Stadium |url=https://www.dailyexcelsior.com/pm-set-to-flag-off-train-to-kashmir-on-june-6-address-rally-at-katra-stadium/ |access-date=2025-06-02 |website=Daily Excelsior |language=en-US}}</ref>

Completed in several phases, this link entails several engineering marvels including the [[Chenab Bridge]] - world's highest railway bridge, the [[Anji Khad Bridge]] - India's first cable-stayed railway bridge,<ref name=printstat1/> the [[Pir Panjal Railway Tunnel]] (Banihal railway tunnel) - India's [[List of rail tunnels in India by length|longest railway tunnel]] as of 2025, <ref name="usbrl.org"/> and the T33 tunnel, which, while short, is immensely challenging as it punches through the Main Boundary Thrust of the Himalayas.

==History==
[[File:Jammu Tawi to Delhi - Rail side views 02.JPG|thumb|alt=Long orange-and-white passenger train in a station|[[Jammu Tawi railway station]].]]

In 1972, Prime Minister [[Indira Gandhi]] opened the newly laid railway line from Kathua to Jammu Tawi, and in 1983 she laid foundation stone for Jammu-Udhampur section of railway line. In 1994, while the Jammu-Udhampur line was still under-construction it's extension to Baramulla was announced by the Prime minister PV Narsimharao. 

In 2005, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh inaugurates the operational Jammu-Udhampur railway line construction of which was delayed by 21 years,<ref name="Udhampur"/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/2005/20050414/main2.htm|work=Online Edition of The Tribune, dated 2005-04-14|title=Manmohan flags off first Udhampur-Jammu train|author=S.P.

In January 2025, [[Jammu railway division|Jammu Railway Division]] was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a newly created division carved out from the [[Firozpur railway division|Firozpur Division]], and the responsibility for the Jammu-Baramaulla line was transferred from Firozpur Division to Jammu Railway Division.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Times |first1=Hindustan |title=PM Modi inaugurates Jammu rail division, says will boost development in region |url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/chandigarh-news/pm-modi-inaugurates-jammu-railway-division-101736153718424.html |access-date=9 January 2025}}</ref>

===Accidents===

During the construction there were several fatal accidents, including death of Altaf Hussain, a Hindustan Construction Company (HCC) labour Altaf Hussain in June 2005 by a tunnel collapse in Tathyar, drowning of two girls in an excavated ditch on 16 May 2007, death of Nepali labour Tika Ram Balwari after being struck by a boulder in the Uri Varmul on 14 Feb 2008, the death of five occupants after a dump truck rolled into a deep gorge in Lower Juda More (near Kouri in [[Reasi district]]) on 18 Apr 2008,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/2008/20080419/j&k.htm#3#3|work=Online edition of The Tribune, dated 2008-04-18|title= Six labourers killed, 2 hurt in Reasi mishap |access-date=16 May 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tribuneindia.com/2008/20080419/j&k.htm#3| title=The Tribune, Chandigarh, India - Jammu & Kashmir }}</ref> and the death of two workers, Abdul Rahman (age 34) and Jumma Baksh (24) at Chenab River bridge on 27 Mar 2011 when the basket in which they were riding (attached to a crane) unhooked and fell over 100 metres.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tribuneindia.com/2011/20110328/j&k.htm#3|work=Online edition of The Tribune, dated 2011-03-27|title=2 killed at rail project site |access-date=13 August 2011}}</ref>

==Features==

The railway crosses over 750 bridges and pass through over {{convert|100|km|abbr=on}} of tunnels.<ref name=bridg1>{{cite web|url=http://www.konkanrailway.com/website/tender/annexure1.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031208010318/http://www.konkanrailway.com/website/tender/annexure1.pdf |url-status=dead |archive-date=8 December 2003  |work=Official webpage of the Konkan Railway Corporation Limited |title=Salient Design Features of the Chenab and Anji Khad bridges |access-date=14 August 2008 }}</ref> 

=== Bridges ===
[[File:Railway bridge in banihal.jpg|thumb|upright|alt=Rail bridge, photographed from the track|Rail bridge in Banihal.]]

Main bridges are:<ref name=printstat1/><ref name=bridg1/>
 
* Chenab Bridge:<ref name=printstat1/> {{convert|1315|m|ft|adj=mid|-long}} {{convert|11215|m|mi|abbr=on}} above the riverbed the arch bridge on the [[Chenab River]] is world's highest railway bridge as it is {{convert|35|m}} higher than the top of the [[Eiffel Tower]].<ref name="Base"/> Design with similar structure to [[West Virginia]]'s [[New River Gorge Bridge]], the Chenab bridge construction used the [[weathering steel]] for an environmentally-friendly appearance and to also eliminate the need for painting. 

* Anji Khad Bridge: {{convert|657|m|ft|adj=mid|-long}} bridge {{convert|186|m|abbr=on}} above the riverbed is India's first cable-stayed railway bridge.<ref name=printstat1/>

=== Tunnels ===

* Pir Panjal Railway Tunnel (Banihal railway tunnel): 11.215-km (7-mile) long, 8.4&nbsp;m wide and 7.39&nbsp;m high tunnel is India longest rail tunnel in 2025, which also includes a 3&nbsp;m-wide service road for maintenance and emergency use. Rail tunnel's average elevation of 1760&nbsp;m is 440&nbsp;m below the existing road tunnel.<ref name="usbrl.org"/> The tunnel facilitates transportation during winter (when inclement weather closes the Srinagar-Jammu highway), and halves the distance between [[Quazigund]] and Banihal (35&nbsp;km by road and 17.5&nbsp;km by train).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/indian-railways-pir-panjal-tunnel-kashmir-valley-asia-second-longest-tunnel/1/239901.html|title=Indian Railways makes history, runs train through Asia's second longest tunnel|date=28 December 2012 }}</ref> The Banihal railway station is 1,702&nbsp;m (5,584&nbsp;ft) above mean sea level, and trains run from Banihal to Qazigund through the tunnel. The 5&nbsp;km [[Banganga River (Jammu and Kashmir)|Banganga]] section was expected to be operational before the completion date of 2017–18 for the entire project.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://usbrl.org/curr-pcdo-jk.pdf |title=Archived copy |access-date=2 July 2013 |url-status=usurped |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304060007/http://usbrl.org/curr-pcdo-jk.pdf |archive-date=4 March 2016  }}</ref> Built with the [[New Austrian tunnelling method]], and a number of challenges have been encountered while tunnelling through the geologically young, unstable [[Sivalik Hills]], requiring drastic solutions with steel arches and several feet of [[shotcrete]] and lattice girder support. 

=== Gradient ===

Although the rail line is being built through a mountainous region, a one-percent [[ruling gradient]] has been set to provide a safe, smooth, reliable journey. [[Bank engine]]s will not be required, making the journey quicker and smoother. It will use {{Track gauge|5ft6in|lk=on}} [[broad gauge]] continuous welded rail laid on concrete sleepers, with a minimum [[Radius of curvature|curve radius]] of 676 m. The maximum speed will be {{convert|100|km/h|mph}}.<ref name="Base"/> Provision for future track doubling is made on major bridges. 

===Safety===

There are [[Closed-circuit television]] cameras at major bridges, tunnels and stations, and all major bridges and tunnels are illuminated. [[Railway signal|Three-aspect colour-light signalling]] is installed on the route for safety, and [[GSM-R]] equipment will be installed in the future to improve its quality.

===Maintenance ===

Maintenance workshop is at [[Badgam]], north of Srinagar. It is owned-operated by [[Indian Railways]]'s [[Jammu railway division|Jammu Railway Division]] of [[Northern Railway zone|Northern zone]].<ref name=printstat1/><ref name="The Economic Times">{{Cite news|title=Centre approves Baramulla-Kupwara rail link|work=The Economic Times|url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/transportation/railways/centre-approves-baramulla-kupwara-rail-link/articleshow/66868141.cms|access-date=2022-01-17}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/chenab-rail-bridge-to-be-ready-by-next-year/articleshow/77314251.cms|title=Chenab rail bridge to be ready by next year|website=[[The Times of India]]|date=2 August 2020 }}</ref> 

==Construction==

The total project cost in 2022 was INR28,000 crore (~US$3.5 billion).<ref name="cost1">{{cite web|url= https://newsonair.com/2022/02/17/another-engineering-marvel-railways-making-indias-first-ever-cable-stayed-rail-bridge/ |work= NewsOnAir |title= Another Engineering marvel: Railways making India's first-ever cable-stayed rail bridge |date= 17 February 2022 | access-date= 2022-09-14}}</ref> 

===Challenges===
[[File:Baramula Banihal DEMU train near Qazigund.jpg|thumb|alt=Train rounding a snowy curve|Training rounding a snow-laden curve in Qazigund.]]

The line was one of the most difficult rail project undertaken on the [[Indian subcontinent]]. The young [[Himalayas]] are geologically surprising and problematic.<ref name="Base"/> The track's alignment presents one of the greatest railway engineering challenges ever faced; only [[Tibet]]'s [[Qingzang Railway]], completed in 2006 across permafrost and climbing to over {{convert|5000|m|abbr=on}} above sea level, is comparable. Although the Indian temperatures are less severe, the region experiences harsh winters with heavy snowfall. In the Pir Panjal Range, most peaks exceed {{convert|15000|ft|m|abbr=on}} in height.
