The Delhi Cantonment railway station, also known as Delhi Cantt. (station code: DEC)[1], is a railway station in Delhi Cantonment in India. It serves as an intermediate stop for trains coming from Delhi or Chandigarh and going towards Rajasthan and Gujarat via Rewari, and a small number of trains originate and terminate at this station.
History[edit | edit source]
Initially operated as a metre-gauge railway station, in 1991 it was converted to broad gauge.
