'''Kanhangad railway station''' ''(Code:KZE)'' is a major and one of the busiest railway station under A – category stations of [[Palakkad railway division|Palakkad Division]], serving the town of [[Kanhangad]] in the [[Kasaragod district]] of [[Kerala]]. It lies in the [[Shoranur–Mangalore section]] of the [[Southern Railway zone|Southern Railway]]. The station has three platforms and four tracks.

==Services==

Trains halting at the station connect the town to prominent cities in India such as [[Thiruvananthapuram Central railway station|Thiruvananthapuram]], [[Ernakulam Junction|Kochi]], [[Chennai Central|Chennai]], [[Kollam]], [[Bangalore]], [[Kozhikode]], [[Coimbatore Junction|Coimbatore]], [[Mangalore]], [[Mysore]], [[Mumbai]], [[New Delhi]], [[Kolkata]], [[Hyderabad]], and so forth.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.mathrubhumi.com/kanhangad_train_time.html |title=Kanhangad Train Connectivity |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120214143823/http://www.mathrubhumi.com/kanhangad_train_time.html |archivedate=14 February 2012 }}</ref>

[[File:Railway Station KHD.png|thumbnail|Kanhangad railway station]]

==Significance==

The prominence of Kanhangad station has increased recently owing to the growth of the city as a major tourist destination with tourist spots like [[Bekal Fort]], [[Ranipuram]] and [[Talacauvery]] hill station besides leading pilgrim centres like [[Anandashram]] and Nithayanandashram and also as an upcoming educational hub. The station also assumed importance in view of its proximity with the [[Central University of Kerala]]'s campus at [[Periya, Kasaragod|Periya]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Special – New railway line|url=https://www.deccanherald.com/content/340276/kerala-govt-pushes-kanhangad-kaniyur.html}}</ref>

==Projects==

A proposed railway line from Kanhangad railway station to [[Bangalore]] through [[Kaniyuru]] is pending since a very long time and is waiting for the final approval from the railway authorities. The survey for the full stretch has already been carried out and is found to be feasible in all aspects. The project have an estimate cost of 1200 crores for which both the states of Kerala and Karnataka has to bear half the cost and the rest by the centre.

This 91 km '''Kanhangad-Kaniyur line ''' project has been conceived in two phases—Kanhangad [[Kaniyuru]] (40 km) which passes through Kerala and the rest in Karnataka. The supporters of the line claim that if it materializes, then [[Bangalore]] will be only 348 km away from Kanhangad or in other words, the duration to reach Bangalore will be six hours only. Currently, the Kanhangad-Bangalore route either via [[Mangalore]] or Palakkad is more than 650 km taking an exhausting 12 hours to reach.

The distance and time required to connect [[Mysore]], [[Subramanya, Karnataka|Subramanya]] and [[Hassan, Karnataka|Hassan]] to North Kerala will also be reduced. It will also give fillip to the tourism sector connecting [[Talacauvery]], Subramanya, [[Bekal]] and [[Ranipuram]] and will also be a boon to education and business sector where a number of students and professionals hailing from Kerala will have an easy access to the IT city, [[Bangalore]]. It will also help the merchants in easing their trade and can have a good revenue as it helps in easy access and exchange of goods between the two states.

If implemented, Kanhangad station will be upgraded as a [[railway junction]] and a special train service from Kanhangad to Bangalore will be a major push for the station and this will also accelerate the development of the city and entire North Malabar region.<ref>{{cite web|title=Special – New railway line|url=https://www.deccanchronicle.com/150831/nation-current-affairs/article/kanjangad-kaniyur-rail-route-survey-completed}}</ref>
