The Bombay, Baroda, and Central India Railway (BB&CI) was founded in 1855 with Surat as its headquarters after a 29-mile wide gauge track was built, Vineet Abhishek, Chief Public Relations Officer of Western Railway, told the Free Press Journal. An agreement to build a railway line from Surat to Baroda and Ahmedabad was signed on November 21, 1855, by the Company and the East India Company.
