Pakistan's Historic Khyber Pass Railway | The 34-Tunnel Mountain Line | Pakistan Pakistan’s Khyber Pass Railway was one of the most fascinating mountain rail projects in the region. Built through the legendary Khyber Pass, this historic railway connected the Peshawar side to Jamrud, Landi Kotal, and later Landi Khana near the frontier region. It was not an ordinary railway route — it was a mountain engineering project built through a highly strategic and difficult landscape.【turn263983view2†L72-L72】 Construction first began in 1905, later resumed after 1919, and the Jamrud–Landi Kotal section was inaugurated in November 1925. In 1926, the railway was extended further to Landi Khana. What made this line truly remarkable was its engineering: 34 tunnels, 92 bridges and culverts, and 4 reversing stations built to handle the steep mountain terrain of the Khyber Pass.【turn263983view2†L72-L72】【turn263983view3†L73-L73】 After 1947, Pakistan Railways continued weekly passenger service on the route, but regular service eventually stopped in 1982 due to low commercial patronage. Later, the famous Khyber Steam Safari revived its memory as a heritage-style experience. This video explains the history, engineering, and importance of one of Pakistan’s most legendary railway lines.【turn263983view1†L74-L74】【turn933413view0†L31-L35】 Disclaimer: Some visuals in this video may be AI-generated reconstructions used only for educational illustration where original footage or archival visuals are limited.
