The total length of this railway line was with 15 railway stations.History
Following the completion of the Hyderabad–Jodhpur Railway in 1892, and its subsequent conversion from broad gauge to metre gauge in 1901, plans to extend the metre gauge network through Sindh were proposed. In 1909, the metre gauge railway was extended from Mirpur Khas northwards to Nawabshah and southwards to Jhudo. The railway reached Khadro in 1912 and Nawabshah in 1939. The railway heavily used for freight transport, most of which was cotton, fresh vegetables and large quantities of red chilies.Closure
