The British were idiots regarding laying Indore Khandwa MG Railway line. They could have easily made it a BG line following the same procedure used for laying railway line at Budhni Ghats. Wonder why they didn't do so & let Rajputana-Malwa Railways built a MG line in Choral Ghats.

Original BG Alignment planned by the British of The Ratlam - Khandwa Line in 1875 was as follows: -
Ratlam Jn
Barnagar
Fatehabad Jn -- Line to Ujjain Jn.
Chandrawatiganj Jn --
...
more...
Line from Ujjain Jn.
Laxmi Bai Nagar Jn -- Line from Ujjain Jn. via Dewas (Note: - Maksi Dewas Line made in 2000-10 period)
Indore
Mhow
Simrol
Choral
Balwada
Barwaha
Omkareswar Rd.
Sanawad
Nimar Kheri
Ajainti
Khandwa
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But after the British handed over making of this line to Rajputana-Malwa Railways, the BG line was dropped & A full Ratlam Khandwa MG line via Patalpani Kalakund was made.
