'''Dildarnagar Junction railway station''' is a railway station in [[Dildarnagar]], [[Uttar Pradesh]]. It serves 10,000 passengers, making it the busiest railway station in the [[Ghazipur district]]. It is the junction where the [[Dildarnagar–Tarighat branch line]] is separated from [[Howrah–Delhi main line]]. For many years the main line of the East Indian Railway which crosses the District south of the Ganges was the only line, but a branch was subsequently made from Dildarnagar to Tarighat.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Khan |first1=Mohammad Rashid |title=Trains to Dildarnagar Station – 65 Arrivals ECR/East Central Zone – Railway Enquiry |url=https://indiarailinfo.com/arrivals/dildarnagar-junction-dln/613 |website=India Rail Info}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Dildarnagar Jn Railway Station (DLN) : Station Code, Time Table, Map, Enquiry |url=https://www.ndtv.com/indian-railway/dildarnagar-jn-dln-station |publisher=NDTV }}</ref>
