1লা মার্চ, 2024, 7:40 PM-এ, রামপুরহাট থেকে কাটরা পর্যন্ত একটি ট্রেন উদ্বোধন করা হয়েছিল, যা রামপুরহাট ও তার আশেপাশের বাসিন্দাদের অযোধা ধাম দেখার সুযোগ করে দিয়েছিলো। এবং এই রামপুরহাট –কাটরা-রামপুরহাট (00307) ট্রেনটি পুরোপুরি ফুল হয়েগিয়েছিল, কিন্তু শুধুমাত্র এক দিন একটি ট্রেন দিয়ে এই অঞ্চলের মানুষের চাহিদা কিছুই মেটাতে পারেনি, তাই ট্রেনটিকে সপ্তাহে এক দিন করে রামপুরহাট থেকে কাটরার মধ্যে চালানো দরকার। কারন বীরভূম জেলায় একান্ন পীঠের মধ্যে পঞ্চপীঠ রয়েছে, যা রাম লালার জন্মস্থানের সাথে সরাসরি ট্রেনের যোগাযোগ দরকার । এছাড়া তারাপীঠ এর মতো পূন্যোভূমি রয়েছে রামপুরহাটে ।

March 1st, 2024, at approximately 7:40 PM, a special train service was inaugurated from Rampurhat to Katra, providing residents of Rampurhat with the opportunity to visit Ayodha Dham. And the Rampurhat –Katra-Rampurhat ( 00307 ) train is packed with passengers availing this opportunity, but one special service is insufficient to meet the needs of the people in this region. Among the 51 piths, five are situated in Birbhum district, necessitating their connection to the birthplace of Ram Lala. So, the 00307 Rampurhat -Katra-Rampurhat special need to regularized on weekly basis.
