English: The South Central Railway (SCR) is one of the 19 railway zones in India. South Central Railway was formed on 02-10-1966 when Hubli and Vijayawada Divisions of Southern Railway and Solapur and Secunderabad Divisions of Central Railway were carved out and merged into a new Zone. Subsequently, Guntakal Division of Southern Railway was merged with South Central Railway on 02-10-1977 and Solapur Division was remerged with Central Railway. Secunderabad Division was split into two Divisions viz. Secunderabad and Hyderabad on 17-02-1978. Following reorganisation of zones and Divisions with effect from 01-04-2003, two new Divisions viz., Guntur and Nanded were operationalised duly transferring Hubli Division to newly formed South Western Railway.
Presently S.C. Railway has 3 Divisions, viz, Secunderabad, Hyderabad and Nanded. South Central Railway predominantly serves the state of Telangana and Maharashtra states.
