PAKISTAN RAILWAYS Brief History
Sir Henry Edward w a s appointed Commissioner of Sindh after its annexation with Bombay in 1847. It was
he who discovered the potential of Karachi as a seaport and conceived the idea of a railway line to up country and
recommended Karachi to be a seaport in 1855. The survey for construction of a railway line from Karachi was started
in 1858. Initially a railway line was proposed from Karachi City to Kotri, then steam navigation through rivers
lndus/Chenab up to Multan and from there on a Railway line to Lahore and beyond.
The 13th of May, 1861 was a historical day when the first railway line was opened for public traffic between Karachi
City and Kotri, a distance of 169 Kms. By 1897 the line from Keamari to Kotri was converted into double track.
Different sections of this part of railway in the Sub-continent, which now comprise Pakistan Railways, were constructed
in the last quarter of the 19th century and early part of the 20th century. Unlike other rail networks in the Sub-continent
during British era, most of the sections (of Pakistan Railways) were constructed as strategic lines to safeguard the
British Empire in the Sub-continent. It is an interesting coincidence that the present alignment of railway line from
Peshawar to Karachi closely follows Alexander's line of march through the Hindu kush to the sea.
In 1885, the Sindh, Punjab and Delhi Railways were purchased by the Secretary of State for India. On 1st January,
1886 this line and other State Railways (the Indus Valley, the Punjab Northern, inclusive of Sindh Sagar eastern section
and the Kandahar or Sindh-Pishin southern section) were integrated and North Western State Railway was formed;
which was later on renamed as North Western Railways.
At the time of Independence, the NWR was bifurcated with 1,847 route miles lying in India and 5,048 route miles in
Pakistan. In 1954 the Railway line was extended to Mardan and Charsadda and in 1956 Jacobabad - Kashmor
narrow-gauge section (2'-6") was converted into broad-gauge section. Construction of Kot Adu-Kashmor line was
Completed in 1973, providing an alternate route from Karachi to up country, along right bank of River Indus. Meter-
gauge line from Hyderabad to Khokhropar was converted to broad-gauge in two stages, from Hyderabad to Mirpur
Khas 66.07 kilometer in 1967 & Mirpur Khas to Khokhropar (Zero Point) 133 kilometer in 2006.

VII. PROJECT DIRECTOR (DRY PORT):
Mission Statement:
The work "Upgradation Terminal Facilities and Dry Ports" is considered inevitable order to achieve the targets of
Business plan.
Vision:
The terminal Facilities at Pipri & Badami Bagh and Dry Ports at Moghalpura & Peshawar are the backbone of
Pakistan Railways freight business for movement of freight between Karachi & Peshawar and handling Imports &
Exports, providing its customers the facility of custom clearance close to their doorstep. The existing infrastructure
is old and antiquated and does not respond to modern day requirements and needs major refurbishment and
Up-gradation. The optimum operational capacity of freight operations will greatly improve with the proposed
improvement.
PC-I for "Up-gradation of Terminal Facilities and Dry Port" amounting to Rs.994.957 million was approved by the
Central Development Working Party (CDWP) in its meeting held on 08.02.2016. The revised project envisages
up-gradation / rehabilitation / Improvement of existing terminal facilities at Pipri Marshalling Yard, Badami Bagh
21
and two dry ports at Moghalpura Lahore and Azakhel, Peshawar with some additional scope of work to enhance
capacity of terminals and Dry Ports to increase the revenue and customer satisfaction. The Revised PC-I has been
approved by the CDWP at cost of Rs.2238.434 million in the meeting held on 04.12.2017.
22
iii. Badami Baqh Lahore:
The train operation of goods parcel at Badami Bagh Goods Yard has remained suspended/ closed for about 10
years or so and routine maintenance of P. Way portion, structure and road was not carried out since long.
The existing condition of the brick masonry floor of goods shed is in deplorable condition being 100 years old which
is required to be reconstructed. Moreover, the existing road is broken at various places, un-even with huge dips and
water accumulates there. The existing roofs of goods shed built with CGI sheets 50 to 60 years ago have gone
completely fretted and stacked goods items are being vitiated due to rain water and inside painting of steel structure
is also rusted. Whereas, the drainage system is fully un-functional due to filling of garbage, debris and even courses
of drain are broken. The existing track with 75 lbs rails is worn out and eroded 70-80 % of sleepers are US and
fittings are mostly missing which tantamount to derailment of goods trains on regular basis. Due to increase of
demand of freight operations and extensive public demand, the execution of whole project will surely benefit Pakistan
Railways not only the development of infrastructure but also scope of freight train operations will also enhance which
will ultimately increase revenue generation.

F. DIRECTORATE OF LEGAL AFFAIRS:
Historically, all legal cases pertaining to Pakistan Railways were dealt by the commercial department of the PR. In 1982,
first litigation cell was established under the control of Chief Commercial Manager. It was only in 1999 that an independent
directorate of legal affairs headed by a director (BPS-20) was established keeping in view the extended scope and variety
legal cases being faced by the organization. It was considered expedient that the independent directorate will specifically
focus on any and all litigation thereby relieving the Chief Commercial Manager from the litigation cases and focusing
directly on commercial activities, which had also increased manifold.
Over the years, the directorate of legal affairs has proven that the decision taken for its establishment was most appropriate
and in line with the interests of the department. Successively fresh and more qualified professionals were inducted in the
directorate according to the requirements of modern times.
Currently, the directorate is headed by a Director Legal affairs (BPS-20) H.Q. office Lahore, who is supported by the
following organizational hierarchy. In addition Director General Legal Affairs (vacant), one Legal Advisor (MP-Ill) and
three Legal Consultants (MP-Ill) are also appointed for resolving the legal issues and opinions.
The directorate is entrusted with assisting the executive departments in provision of legal advice on Contracts,
Agreements and consultation on legal issues, proceedings in the courts of law and nomination of appropriate Railways
counsels from a panel notified by the Law & Justice Division. The directorate scrutinizes, examines and vets bidding
documents and Para-wise comments provided by the concerned/client branches before handing over to the RCLS for
onward submission to different courts of law for contesting cases filed against Pakistan Railways.
The process of computerization is underway and within short span of time, all the legal setups of the directorate in the
operating divisions shall be connected and electronically linked for an efficient and ready exchange of pertinent legal
information thereby giving rise to efficiency.
The directorate wishes to provide its law officers un-interrupted access to online law sites containing data on latest
judgments as well as federal & provincial laws. Dedicated funds have been allocated for procurement of new and latest
law books & digests to improve and extend the existing library hosting most of the up to date books of reference.

The CEO, RAILCOP presented the cash requirements in connection with F-Schedule of Track Machines,
rehabilitation of Track Machines, rehabilitation of machine T-28, rehabilitation. of other track machines and cranes and
procurement of track laying machine, flash butt welding machine, track inspection machine and establishing laboratory
& equipment (approximate Rs. 2,796/- million). The CEO, RAILCOP briefed that rates in connection with F-Schedule
of Track Machines were obtained from authorized representative of OEM. The Chair inquired that whether the
complete data in connection with working of track machines and cranes etc like working hours viz a viz per kilometer
progress and maintenance costs etc on daily/annual basis was available. The CEO, RAILCOP and AGM/lnfrastructure
responded that all such data is available and being maintained as per SoPs in relevant registers/ledgers and log books
of track machines. However, the Chair directed that all such data be maintained in a consolidated form/manner and be
readily available in digitized consolidated format so that the same could be accessed any time from anywhere. For this
purpose, it was directed that
96
P.D/TMS & TMO, RAILCOP will make available all such data to concerned I.T personnel of Pakistan Railways who will
further work on the task in a week's time to convert the same into digital format which will be accessible online. It was
also briefed that T-28 machine since its import could not work much and can be made functional by attending the issue
of remote control tool and other rehabilitation factors. The Chair directed the Deputy Staff Officer to S.R/C.M for
referring the matter of T-28 machine to NAB.
The CEO, RAILCOP highlighted that if RAILCOP wants to be the proprietary of Pakistan Railways then, there is a
requirement to purchase other important machinery as well i.e. Track Laying Machine, Flush Butt Welding Machine,
Ballast Cleaning Machine & Track Inspection Machine etc. Moreover, these machines can play an important role to
carry out the track activities in ML-1, ML-2 & ML-3 Projects. The CEO, RAILCOP stated that currently almost all track
tamping machines (14 Nos) are of Plasser & Theurer, Austria make except one Russian make and practically there is
no competitor to these machines. The CEO, RAILCOP briefed that RAILCOP is currently engaged in talks with Russian
side as well for such machines i-e procurement of track laying machine, ballast cleaning machine, track tamping
machine, flash butt welding machine and track inspection machine. It was highlighted that induction of track inspection
machine in the fleet will lead to elimination of human errors involved in manual/visual inspections. The Chair also
inquired that who verifies that the work performed by track machines and cranes etc is satisfactory.
The AGM/infrastructure responded that all such works of track related machinery are duly monitored and verified in the
railway divisions by concerned engineering supervisory staff headed by the Divisional Engineers.
The P.D/TMS & TMO with permission of the Chair briefed the forum that working of track machines and cranes etc
directly depends on the engineering block time allowed/allocated by the traffic department of Pakistan Railways. The
P.D/TMS & TMO further briefed that the Ballast Cleaning Machine worked 92 KMs in the past before getting out of
order on account of maintenance & replacement of spare parts. However, its progress is average 300 meters per day
depending upon the engineering block time. The AGM/infrastructure stated that mostly, foul ballast is present in the
track. The CEO, RAILCOP stated that that due to presence of foul ballast, the work of ballast cleaning machine gets
very important. The Chair observed that keeping in view the quantum of work specially on Karachi-Lahore section, at
least 04 ballast cleaning machines are required, one each for each division. However, the Chair observed that the
subject of Track Machines is being dealt haphazardly as whole year's work schedule should be worked out in advance
and for this purpose, the engineering block times need also be allocated well in advance as the track machines also
need periodical maintenance and overhauling. The Chair directed that trackers be installed on all Track Machines in
order to have real time monitoring and also observed that RAILCOP should have its own professional H.R to deal with
matters of TMS &TMO projects.
