Prior to the partition of India into India and Pakistan, at midnight on 14/15 August 1947, there were of course a number of lines across the future border. Trains apparently continued running across the border for a few years, but no details are known. In more recent times, only two have remained in use but these were not infrequently closed at times of tension between the two countries. As at 2025, neither line is in use.
