	Up to the sixties there was a {{track gauge\|1000mm}}-wide [[metre-gauge railway]] link from Cooch Behar to Dhubri via Golokganj. It was then known as the Assam Line Railway Service. It also connected East Pakistan, even after partition. However, collapse of the rail-cum-road bridge over the Gadadhar in the seventies ended that link.
