The '''Baripada Railway Station''' serves [[Baripada]], the headquarters of [[Mayurbhanj district]] in the Indian state of [[Odisha]].

==History==
In 1905, [[Mayurbhanj State Railway]] linked [[Rupsa, India|Rupsa]] with Baripada on the [[Howrah–Chennai main line]] through a narrow-gauge line, then extended it further. The Rupsa-Baripada-Bangriposi line was converted to broad gauge between 1996 and 2006.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.indianexpress.com/news/mayurbhanj-state-railway/474611 |title = Mayurbhanj State Railway | last= Singh|first= Vikas|publisher= Express News Service, 11 June 2009| access-date = 2013-01-02}}</ref> Currently, Train No. 12891 leaves Baripada at 5:10 AM and reaches Bhubaneswar at 10:00 AM. The return train leaves Bhubaneswar at 5:10 PM and reaches Baripada at 10:00 PM.
