'''Murshidabad''' is a railway station on the [[Sealdah–Ranaghat–Krishnanagar–Berhampore–Lalgola line]] and is located in [[Murshidabad district]] in the Indian state of [[West Bengal]]. Murshidabad railway station lies in [[Murshidabad]].

== Location ==
It is located in Murshidabad district, {{cvt|199|km}} from {{stnlnk|Sealdah}}.

== History ==
Ranaghat–Lalgola branch line was opened in 1905 during British reign.

== Electrification ==
The 128 km long Krishnanagar–Lalgola stretch was electrified in 2004 for [[Electric multiple unit|EMU]] services.{{citation needed|date=March 2019}}

== Infrastructure ==
The railway station has four platforms after the installation of a double railway track.

== Expansion ==
Railway Ministry tried to connect the railway station to {{stnlnk|Azimganj Junction}}. But due to land acquisition problems, the work of connecting these two stations was stopped. However, with help of [[Mamata Banerjee]], the expansion work has been started again in full swing. The bridge named as [[Nashipur Rail Bridge]] over the [[Bhagirathi River]] is complete. The Murshidabad-Azimgunj link is expected to be commissioned by the end of December 2017. Some North Bengal trains like Darjeeling Mail, Haldibari Express are likely to move through Sealdah–Ranaghat–Behrampore Court–Murshidabad–Azimganj instead of crossing Bali Bridge and move through Barddhaman–Baharwa–Malda Town. Rail Ministry reports say that this linkage will minimise the travel distance (25 km) as well as time.<ref>[https://www.theweek.in/columns/bibek-debroy/2019/10/05/the-nashipur-syndrome.html The Nashipur Syndrome], ''The Week'', Retrieved 12 October 2020</ref>
