One of the oldest and important railway project of central railway zone was kalyan-Ahmednagar railway project which was in planning stage since british regime. It was referred to as 3rd ghat project. The survey of this project was carried out in 1973,2000, 2006, 2014 etc. This project was in pink book in 2010. unfortunately this project could not be started. The alignment length of this project was 184 km and it could have been shortest route for marathwada, andhra and telangana. The major challenge for this project is 18.96 km long tunnel in malshej ghat section.[4] Malshej Kriti samiti is following for kalyan ahmednagar railway project.
