Basti Abdullah Railway Station (Urdu: بستی عبد الله ریلوے اسٹیشن) was located near the village of Basti-Abdullah, Rajanpur district, in the province of Punjab, Pakistan.
History
The railway station was first established during the British Raj as part of the Great Indian Peninsula Railway,[1] however it was later incorporated into Main Line 2 (Kotri–Attock Line), and heavy remodeling of the station was completed around 1972 by The Ministry of Railways.[2]
The stations served the village Basti-Abdullah and the nearby city of Kashmore (which also has its own separate station).[3]
The station and the nearby village are both named after Maulana Abdullah Ghazi.[4]
