Doubling update between Nagercoil and Thiruvananthapuram Central, PART 01.

This video update May 25 Thiruvananthapuram Central (station code: TVC) is the main railway station serving the city of Thiruvananthapuram (formerly Trivandrum), the capital of Kerala, India. It's a significant transportation hub in the Southern Railway zone and is recognized as the busiest railway station in Kerala in terms of passenger movement. Here's a breakdown of key information about Thiruvananthapuram Central: History: The terminus was moved to its present location at Thiruvananthapuram Central in 1931. It was inaugurated on November 4, 1931, during the reign of Sethu Lakshmi Bayi, the Maharani of Travancore. Interestingly, the station was built entirely with rock masonry, with no bricks used in its construction. Initially, it was a branch-line station but was built to a standard comparable to major city stations in India, capable of handling two departures per day and featuring one platform. Structure and Layout: Thiruvananthapuram Central has 5 platforms and 16 tracks (some sources say 18 tracks). It has two main entrances: the primary access opposite the Central Bus Station and a western entrance on Power House Road. The station building itself is a well-known landmark, featuring a blend of traditional Kerala and modern architectural styles. There are ongoing efforts to extend platforms, particularly Platform 2, to accommodate more trains and reduce delays. The station is also undergoing redevelopment with plans for a long walkway with shops and improved lift and escalator access to all platforms. Services and Facilities: Connectivity: Thiruvananthapuram Central is a major rail hub, connecting the city to nearly every significant city in India. It serves long-distance and short-distance trains, including prominent ones like the Himsagar Express and Vivek Express. Security: It was the first station in Kerala to have video surveillance and is equipped with modern security equipment. Passenger Amenities: The station offers a range of facilities for passengers, including: Waiting rooms Food stalls and restaurants (including well-known chains like Saravana Bhavan, Hotel Woodlands, Baskin-Robbins, Cafe Coffee Day, and Haldiram's) ATMs Bookstalls Retiring/Dormitory rooms Cloakroom Parking Wi-Fi Public transport connections (taxi stand, pre-paid auto service, and proximity to the Central Bus Station) Unreserved Ticketing System (UTS) counters and Automatic Ticket Vending Machines (ATVMs) Computerized Passenger Reservation System (PRS) Accessibility: While the station has foot overbridges, there have been some issues with inadequate lift access to all platforms, which is being addressed in the redevelopment plans. Operational Details: It operates under the Southern Railway zone and is the headquarters of the Thiruvananthapuram railway division. The station handles a significant number of daily passengers and is a profitable station for Southern Railway. It is a terminating point for proposed High-Speed Rail corridors like Chennai-Bengaluru-Thiruvananthapuram and Thiruvananthapuram-Mangalore. #mkyathri #train #indianrailways #nagercoilvlogs #railway #railwaystation #nagercoiljunction #tvc
