Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor (EDFC) is a freight specific railway under construction in northern to eastern India by the Indian Railways. The railway will run between Ludhiana in Punjab and Dankuni (near Kolkata) in West Bengal. The railway is one of the multiple freight corridors. For the railway line, broad gauge will be used. The Eastern DFC will mostly have double tracks and will be electrified but the section from Ludhiana in Punjab to Khurja (Bulandshahr) in Uttar Pradesh 400 Km will be single line electrified due to lack of space. This freight corridor will cover a total distance of 1839 km. This corridor will have a 46 Km branch line which shall join Khurja on the Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor with Dadri on the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor.
