Ringas Junction railway station is a model railway station (as declared by Indian Railways) in Sikar district, Rajasthan, India. Its code is RGS & is located 58.5 kilometres (36.4 mi) from Jaipur Junction. It serves Reengus city and neighbouring Holy-town Shree Khatu Shyam Ji. The station consists of three well-sheltered platforms. It has basic facilities including water and sanitation.[1] The station was main metre-gauge junction till 2005, but after the construction of the broad-gauge track from Rewari and Narnaul in the north to Phulera and Ajmer in the south, it is operational as an important BG junction now. The 200.4 kilometres (124.5 mi) long track from Churu to Jaipur via Sikar & Ringas has been converted to broad gauge.[2][3][4]
