In the 1950s when Rourkela Steel Plant was being constructed, a marshalling yard was set up at Bondamunda to cater to the requirements of bulk transportation.

A 170 km (106 mi) line was constructed to establish a direct link with Ranchi.

Bondamunda was connected to Barsuan iron ore mines in 1960 and the line was extended to Kiriburu in 1964.
