I was a passenger bound for Guwahati. My Boarding point was Dankuni and my Train was 02249, Bangalore City--New Tinsukia Express.I will speak from the perspective of a long distance passenger.Access to this station is cumbersome if one decides to reach by road.Instead a far suitable alternative will be to take a Local train from Sealdah, which are plentiful in number.My Train from South India took the BankraNayabaz- BhattaNagar-Baltikuri section from Andul to reach DankuniTrain waited for 25 minutes at Dankuni which is ample for anyone.
Dankuni is a railway junction station on the Howrah–Burdwan chord line and it is located at Hooghly district in the Indian state of West Bengal. It is linked with both Howrah and Sealdah for this it is a junction station.The Howrah–Bardhaman chord, a shorter link to Bardhaman from Howrah than the Howrah–Bardhaman main line, was constructed in 1917.

Dankuni Station is fantastic and Very Clean . Though there is just 4 platforms but there are many tracks . Boom 💥
Nice Here this is a junction station and also nice the all outside places are super speciality options for our service
A good but small junction station in the chord line of Howrah-Burdwan railway track. This junction station station is specifically important for joining Howrah and Sealdah lines through two different local tracks. Although the station is neat and clean with available drinking water and public toilets, the toilets should be cleaned more frequently. And ER should think about increasing the frequency of Dankuni-Sealdah locals to tackle rush in this line. Also, ER may think about stopping more mail trains in this junction station so that office passengers can travel with ease.

There are numerous flats and apartments on both side of the station. Howra is only few station after Dankuni. There is a very big market just few minutes from station.
Maintenance work need to be improved
Junction station on Eastern Railway. It has link with both Howrah and Sealdah stations and law cal trains ply between those stations. Platforms are long, clean with lights and adequate seating facilities. Has restroom and display boards. Public address system works well. But most of the express trains do not stop here.
Good
Neat & clean station
Fine
Its a local train station and is junction. Local trains for sealdah and Howrah station are available here. Its cones under Howrah chord line. Frequency of trains are lesser for both Howrah and sealdah section. Though small but clean and calm station.one should beware of water logging after heavy rain outside the old ticket counter
Nice

It is an important station in Howrah Chord line and Sealdah Dankuni connection. It is most important station for integrated freight corridor of eastern part.
Nice station...it is in the howrah-burdwan chord line....here also dankuni-sealdah local is available...🚂🚋🚋🚋🚋🚝🚞🚞🚞
Nice and clean
None of the public amenities are there..even a good toilet.
The environment of the station area is good.. one of the major drawback is the drainage system. During heavy rain roads get blocked.
Nice station...it is a junction station and important one also..
The station is important but not well organized enough.
Good station. .you can breath easy here. . .

A very important railway junction connecting Howrah-Burdwan chord line with Sealdah
A big railway junction station & very important railway station for Sealdah & Howrah both divisions.
Lal
Very good. All howrah and sealdah bound trains available here
Very good station. Here available for Howrah-Bardhaman cord train and Sealdah-Dankuni way train.
Last Sunday I attended a picnic in Dankuni. Went there (Dankuni Station) by train. The station is clean with good display board. Newspaper stall is good as well, I purchased my favorite Bengali tabloid (ebela) from them.
An intermediate station between HOWRAH/SEALDAH/KOLKATA and BARDDHAMAN..chord line trains are available here.
Important station but not very systematic. You can access trains to both Howrah and Sealdah from this junction. But the problem is all the platforms are not well interconnected. Place is not clean enough. Shades on the platforms are not adequate. But as you can say if you have time in hand its a good station to access trains.
A place from where one can easily access to reach anywhere
Foot over bridge is not there for passengers exit. Poor maintenance found at the station. Passengers comes to station at their own risk.
Most important station in HB Cord Line
