- 2 years ago
Pranav Ganapathy comments "In the video Katni WDG-3A # 14644 with dead WDP-4B crawls out with an unknown express."
Sarai Rohilla railway station, officially known as Delhi Sarai Rohilla railway station, is situated about 4 km from old Delhi railway junction in India. Its station code is DEE. It is managed by Delhi Division of Northern Railway zone. Many trains from Delhi to Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan and Gujarat stop at this station. More than twenty trains including Duronto and AC trains originate at this station.
Sarai means an inn or resting place for travellers. This place outside the walled city of Delhi used to be a Sarai for Rohillas who ruled a region called Rohilkhand around Bareilly and Rampur northeast of Delhi during the Mughal era. The Rohillas rested here while travelling to Delhi.
The station is named after the medieval village it is located in. The village was originally named after Ruh Ullah Khan, a noble in the Mughal court. Over time, this name has been corrupted to Rohilla.
Sarai Rohilla railway station has been developed as a terminus. Many trains originating from Delhi city towards Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Mumbai now start from Sarai Rohilla railway station and end there. It has a ticket reservation centre, three washing lines for train rakes and five platforms. Two platforms of adjacent Vivekanandpuri railway halt are connected to Sarai Rohilla railway station by a common foot overbridge.
