The map is a bit old as it is missing the Broad Gauge link between Sirajganj and Dhaka through Tangail. This line crosses the Bramhaputra/Yamuna at Sirajbanj on the new Bangabandhu Setu (Bridge). As you can see Tangail is to the north of Dhaka. The Dhaka - Kolkata Mayitree Express runs along this route too. It crosses into India t the Darsana/Gede border crossing which is to the left of where the name JHENIADAHA appears on the map. On its route it crosses two phenomenal bridges - one the Hardinge Bridge across the Ganges at Kushtia and then the Bangabandhu Setu across the Bramhaputra at Sirajganj. Naryanganj, not shown on the map is on the river to the southeast of Dhaka.
