The Junagadh State Railway, also called Junagadh & Veraval Railway,[1] was a metre gauge railway owned by the Junagadh State and initially worked by the Bhavnagar–Gondal–Junagadh–Porbandar Railway.[2] From 1911 the JunSR worked itself as an independent system, owned by the Junagadh Durbar, until 1948 when it became part of the Saurashtra Railway.[3]
In 1936, the company owned 18 locomotives, 2 railcars, 99 coaches and 373 goods wagons.[4]
