In 1873, Rewari railway station was built on long first commercial
metre-gauge track in India from to Rewari by
Rajputana State Railway. A long segment of the railway line had been laid a year earlier from
Delhi to
Garhi Harsaru that catered to existing flourishing salt production works (from underground
brine) at
Farrukhnagar, to its west. In 1874, 1875 and 1881, the railway line was extended from Rewari to
Alwar-
Bandikui, further to
Jaipur-
Ajmer, and eventually another to
Ahmedabad in
Gujarat respectively by
Rajputana–Malwa Railway. In 1884, Rewari became a railway junction when, a -long metre-gauge railway line to
Bhatinda was completed by
Rajputana–Malwa Railway In 1986, long line to
Bikaner via
Kanina,
Loharu,
Sadulpur,
Churu &
Ratangarh was laid.). In 1905, long line to Phulera via
Narnaul,
Neem-Ka-Thana and
Ringas was laid. Eventually five metre-gauge tracks branched out from Rewari. All
metre-gauge trains starting from (and terminating at)
Delhi railway junction (station code DLI) to
Punjab,
Rajputana,
Saurashtra,
Kutch and north Gujarat regions passed through Rewari station. The management of Rajputana–Malwa Railways (and Rewari railway station) was transferred to
Bombay, Baroda and Central India Railway (BBCI) in 1889. BBCI became
Western Railway in 1951. In 1952, Delhi–Rewari–Bikaner railway line were transferred to Bikaner Division of newly formed
Northern Railway zone in 1952 while Rewari–Jaipur and Rewari–Ringas–Phulera sections remained in Western Railway. In 1992, Delhi–Rewari railway line had double
metre gauge and one of the tracks was converted to
broad gauge as a part of conversion of Ajmer–Delhi line. In 1993, Rewari–Bhatinda track was converted to broad gauge. In 1994, Rewari–Jaipur–Ajmer track was converted to broad gauge. In May 1997, broad-gauge trains started running from Ahmedabad to Delhi via Rewari. Within a few years, both the tracks from to Delhi railway junction were converted to broad gauge and all metre-gauge trains stopped operating from Delhi Junction. As a result of this, all metre-gauge trains to Rewari and beyond terminated at and started from Sarai Rohilla which became a railway terminus. By 2009, all metre-gauge railway tracks from Rewari were converted to broad gauge. Until 2010, Rewari was the world's oldest and largest commercial metre-gauge railway junction. Later, Rewari–
Ringas–
Ajmer–
Palanpur long track and Rewari–
Ringas–
Ajmer–
Palanpur–
Mehsana railway track were also electrified. Some private logistics operators have built container storage yards north of Rewari near Garhi Harsaru (south of
Gurgaon) for this purpose. In 2025-26, Rewari station underwent ₹12 crore upgrade with improved station building facade, new lifts and escalators, renovated waiting rooms and toilets, new coach guidance system, separate arrival and departure gates, enhanced parking, and an attractive boundary wall. ==Facilities==
