  • The point is not that it is a mere beautiful station. It is, indeed! Clean and well-maintained. In an expanded mode. It was built (teh facade testifies to it) during the Nizam rule to cater to Metre Guage link to Ajmer (pilgrim spot for Muslims) in Rajasthan and Bangalore in the South. Now it has been converted as a Broad Guage station. Yes, train for even Chennai leaves from there. In front of the station, is a model of an engine. Just outside is a bus station linking many areas of the city of Hyderabad.

  • Railway station clock room telephone number please
  • Trains. No. 16353kept on p. No. 4.There is no lift to d platform unlike other platforms. The escalator provided kept off. There is no response from 27568624even after many calls. How do authorities expect the P. H & others who cannot use steps. Basically the call be responded. The Station Master shd focus on practical problems rather than leaving to the whims and fancies of staff. Be feel responsibility in discharge of duties.
