To meet the growing demand for jute worldwide, there was a need for improved communication systems to supply jute from the major jute producing areas of
Dhaka and
Mymensingh to the
port of Calcutta. For the reason, Bangaon–Jesore–Khulna broad gauge railway line known as Central Railway was constructed between 1882 and 1884. Rupdia railway station was constructed in 1884. The permanent structure of this station was constructed around 1982. As of 2017, the
ministry of Railways was constructing
Dhaka–Jessore line under Padma Bridge rail link project. The station was demolished for reconstruction under the new railway line project. As of 2023, the railway authorities have planned to make the station operational by appointing a stationmaster and
pointsman at the station. ==References==
