Urdu College railway station(Urdu: اردو کالج اسٹیشن, Sindhi: اردو کالج اسٽيشن) is an abandoned railway station on Karachi Circular Railway loop line in Gulshan-e-Iqbal, Karachi, Pakistan.[1] Urdu College railway station was established in 1984 as part of the Karachi Circular Railway (KCR) project. The station was built to serve the growing population of Gulshan-e-Iqbal, a suburb of Karachi. However, the station has been abandoned since 2006 and is now in a state of disrepair. There are plans to revive the KCR project, and if this happens, Urdu College railway station may be reopened.
