(NRC, reporting mark: NR / ने . रे) is owned by the Nepalese Government, and is located in Nepal . The railway spreads into other neighboring territories . </P> <P> It maintains and operates two railway lines: the Raxaul - Sirsiya and Jaynagar - Janakpur . The former is approximately a 6 km (3.7 mi) line from Raxaul, India to Sirsiya Inland Container Depot (or dry port) near Birganj, Nepal, and is primarily used for freight transport . The latter is a 53 km (33 mi) line from Jaynagar, India to Janakpur, Nepal, and is used primarily for passenger transport . </P> <P> Introduced to Nepal during the Rana period, the Raxaul - Amlekhagunj section of the Nepal Government Railway (NGR) was built as a 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) narrow gauge railway . This 39 - kilometre - long (24 mi) line built by the British in 1927, allowed people from different areas of the country to reach Amlekhganj, and helped move heavy vehicles to Bhimphedi . It was then possible to reach Kathmandu from Bhimphedi on foot, but the railway was later closed down . The historic Janakpur railway running between Nepal and India was once a major border crossing for citizens on both sides . The British built the 20 - mile - long (32 km) track in 1937 to carry timber from the once heavily forested areas of Janakpur to the Indian city of Jainagar, but as supply dwindled, the train's main cargo became people . </P>
