Wonderful station specially in term on cleaning and lighting. There is bridge and underpass as well to change platforms. Heavily occupied all the time similar to all other Junctions. It is really spacious, attractive and safe station. Locomotive engine dummy is an attraction point here.

Coimbatore Junction, also known as Coimbatore Main Junction (station code: CBE), is the primary railway station serving Coimbatore city. Train service in Coimbatore started in 1861, upon the construction of the Podanur–Madras line connecting Kerala and the west coast with the rest of India. Coimbatore lies on the Coimbatore–Shoranur 5 ft 6 in (1,676 mm) broad gauge. Until 1956, the Coimbatore railway division was functioning with Podanur as the Headquarters. In 1956, the headquarters was shifted to Olavakkode, of Kerala state and was named Olavakkod railway division. In 1980, Olavakkod division was renamed Palakkad railway division. It comprised Kerala and western districts of Tamil Nadu. Protests arose in Tamil Nadu to form new railway division with Coimbatore as its headquarters. Ultimately, a new Salem railway division was carved out of the Palakkad railway division in 2006 with Salem as its headquarters. The city falls under the Salem Division of the Southern Railway zone of Indian Railways. The major railway station is the Coimbatore Junction which is the third-largest income generating station in the Southern Railway zone, after Chennai Central and Chennai Egmore. Coimbatore is one among the top hundred booking stations of Indian Railways. Other major railway stations catering to the city include Coimbatore North Junction, Podanur Junction and minor stations at Pilamedu, Singanallur, Irugur Junction, Periyanaickenpalayam, Thudiyalur, Madukkarai, Somanur and Sulur. It is one of the major train stations in South India. It is one of the A1 graded station in the Southern Railway. This station comes under the jurisdiction of Salem division of Southern Railways and contributes to 45% of the revenues of the zone. It is one of the top booking stations in India according to Indian Railways. Chennai Egmore, Madurai Junction, Coimbatore Junction and Chennai Central are the most profitable stations of Southern Railways

Coimbatore junction is in southern railway Salem division. From this junction most part of the country is covered. This station located near coimbatore medical college hospital and state bank of india head office. Presently due to covid 19 less trains are operating from this junction. Most part of the kera district trains from otherstates need to cross this junction.

One of the main south indian city railway station. Very neat and clean. Located very much in the heart of city. The state and interstate bus stand at gandhipuram is 3km away. The Buses to ooty and mettupalayam starts from saibaba colony bus stand which is 4 km away from here. Bus transport is frequent and cheaper, all online taxi services available. Airport is around 10 km away from here.

Park Inn offers decent stay at budget rates. A standard non AC room for a single person is available at Rs 1350/- plus taxes. This includes breakfast, wifi and news paper. The rooms has a bed, 2 single seat sofas and table, 2 extra tables to keep luggage and other items, a full length wardrobe, a dressing table and mirror. Even with all these items, the room is spacious enough for you to move around easily. Plug points are conveniently located on either sides of the bed. There is an intercom phone and LCD TV. The channels available are limited with mostly regional language channels. The toilet is well equipped with a basin, commode, bidet, shower and tap. There is hot and cold water for bathing. There is plug point near the toilet mirror for hair dryers/ironing etc. Free Wifi is good. They will give you a separate username but same password for your mobile and laptop. In case it does not work, the in house technician is quite helpful. Breakfast consists of juice, bread, butter, jam, fruits, coffee, tea, dosas, sambhar, chutneys, upma, idlis. The room service is efficient and the food is fine as well.

Review №72

Pretty small and congested. Doesnt have a car parking, Only two wheelers. Even if you bring cars just to drop someone in the front youd be greeted by jeers and loud bonk horns to keep moving. Even before you could complete the dropping. The place would be swarmed by a lot of people. High COVID alert. And people would be just lying by there at the entrance. Like theyre having a time in their beds at home.
