Izzatnagar railway division is a part of North Eastern Railway zone of Indian Railways. The Izzatnagar Railway Station in Bareilly has its roots in the year 1875, when the British planned to connect the hilly regions of Nainital with the plains. The project was led by Alexander Izzat, a British railway officer. In honor of his work, the station was originally named Izzat Railway Station. Over time, locals began pronouncing it as Izzatnagar and the name stuck. Alexander’s son and grandson – Lieutenant Colonel W.R. Izzat and Sir J.R. Izzat – also contributed to the station’s development. This railway division was founded on 14 April 1952.[2][3][4][5][6]
