History

[edit]

Qilla Abdullah railway station was established during the British colonial era.[1]

Until 2019, Pakistan Railways maintained daily train services at the station, which served as a transit point for the region.[1] These services facilitated the transport of goods to Chaman and Quetta, contributing to local trade and economic activity.[1]

As of 2024, train services have been reduced to once or twice per week.[1] This reduction has impacted the local economy.[1] The station's infrastructure has deteriorated, with damage to equipment noted.[1] Railway station staff are primarily present only when trains are scheduled to operate.[1]
