[[File:Railway Map, Agra.jpg|thumb|Railway Map of Agra (the line to Jaipur has meanwhile been converted to broad gauge)]]

[[Agra]] has a north-south broad gauge line intersecting an east-west broad gauge line. The crossing is around the Rui Ki Mandi area where the east west line passes under the North South line.<ref>http://www.ncr.indianrailways.gov.in/view_section.jsp?lang=0&id=0,7,359,475</ref>

Two broad gauge lines come from [[Bharatpur, Rajasthan|Bharatpur]] and [[Bayana]] respectively. Both of these lines are single line while the later one is electrified. These two lines converge just before Idgah Jn. and the common line continues up to [[Tundla]] Jn on Delhi - Howrah line.
