Call for temporary stop at Ekm town station

Rail passengers have demanded that all trains stop at the Ernakulam town station till work on the Kochi Metro is over.
“Due to the ongoing Metro construction work, railway passengers are finding it difficult to travel to and from Ernakulam junction to catch trains that do not stop at Ernakulam town station. Authorities should allow temporary stop for all trains that cross the Ernakulam town station to reduce the inconvenience caused to railway passengers,“ said Thrissur railway passengers association (TRPA) general secretary P Krishnakumar.

When contacted, railway authorities said such temporary stops can be definitely considered. “However, passengers have to officially demand the same and submit a mass petition. Also, a temporary stop can be considered at Edappally railway station to reduce the rush at Ernakulam town and junction railway stations,“ said a senior officer.

Passengers also demanded the railways take up the proposal to revive the old railway station at the earliest. Though the proposal submitted by former Thiruvananthapuram railway division manager Rajesh Agrawal had included the construction of Pachalam rail overbridge, six new railway tracks, a roundabout and a 10storeyed commercial complex on a public-private partnership (PPP) model, the railway hasn't taken any steps in this regard, citing financial unviability.
